United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc is preparing for its upcoming quarterly UBA Business Series. This event focuses on the process of converting direct customer feedback into technological advancements tailored to African market demands. The discussion, titled “Building for Africa’s Realities: Turning Consumer Feedback into Technology-Driven Solutions,” is scheduled for July 16, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. WAT.
The event brings together entrepreneurs, investors, and product developers to examine how to create functional, localized solutions rather than relying on imported models. Viewers can watch the live session via UBA’s official digital platforms, including their YouTube channel. The panel includes entrepreneur and rapper M.I Abaga, Octerra Capital co-founder Ashim Egunjobi, and Chowdeck CEO Femi Aluko, with moderation by media entrepreneur Adaora Mbelu.
Alero Ladipo, UBA’s Group Head of Brands, Marketing and Corporate Communications, highlighted that the event underscores the bank’s support for businesses fueling growth across the continent. Ladipo noted that successful African companies distinguish themselves by actively listening to their user base and adapting their technology to meet specific local needs. The series aims to provide actionable strategies for professionals and business leaders to foster sustainable growth. UBA, which serves over 45 million clients across 20 African nations and several international markets, remains dedicated to promoting financial inclusion through these knowledge-sharing initiatives.
