From Meta to African Fintech: Mimi Kufuor on Women in Leadership & the $150M KoinKoin Story (Confidently Crypto)

Africa isn't catching up on crypto—it's leading. Dr. Tonya M. Evans talks with Mimi Kufuor, CEO of KoinKoin Ghana, about building a digital asset platform driven by utility, not speculation. Mimi shares her journey from Meta to African fintech, explaining why stablecoins prevent money from fluctuating in everyday transactions, how KoinKoin doubled revenues to £150 million across Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, and South Africa, and what it means to advocate for women in tech leadership while bridging traditional finance and decentralized ecosystems. This conversation challenges American assumptions about where real crypto innovation is happening. Subscribe and share with anyone who needs this perspective.
