XNode partners with Singapore Week of Innovation and TeCHnology (SWITCH), the leading tech festival for the Global-Asia innovation ecosystem. Taking place on 7-11 December 2020 with the Singapore FinTech Festival as SFF x SWITCH — get ready for an exciting week-long, round-the-clock, digital and physical event!

As part of SFF x SWITCH 2020 (Singapore FinTech Festival x Singapore Week of Innovation and Technology), the Top 100 Global Startups will pitch to a global audience at SLINGSHOT 2020’s Virtual Finals in December and compete for cash and grant prizes worth up to S$800,000!

World Economic Forum statistics have it that, by 2025, 97% of worldwide growth will occur in the world’s emerging markets, many of which are in Africa. Africans are watching technology develop and evolve in ways never seen before. The continent is leading the way in mobile payments, with money transfer service M-Pesa now serving 30 million users across ten countries. Africa isn't just driving technological change for Africa, but for the world at large. By 2025, the population of Africa will exceed that of India and of China. Shortly after that, about 40% of the world's working-age population will be in Africa, a continent of 54 countries.

The potential for economic and technological growth in Africa is clear. Yes, many African countries still face challenges related to infrastructure, security and education – yet, nevertheless, people like Murendeni Mafumo Founder of Kusini Water, Okey Esse CEO of Powerstove and Roy Njoka Co-founder of Digiduka have forged paths towards sustainability for themselves, their countries and the continent at large.

In today's ever-changing digital world, Innovation is key. Find out from XNode leaders how to bridge the gap between corporates and startups, foster strong intrapreneurship, and give both corporates and startups a platform to demonstrate what they do best. Featuring Zhou Wei, Founder, XNode; Lei Niu, Corporate Innovation Director, XNode; and Luuk Eliens, Chief Commercial Officer, XNode
