Interview with Dotun Adekunle, Chief Operating Officer & Chief Technology Officer, Opay
In this clip, Dotun Adekunle, COO & CTO of OPay, breaks down why the fintech industry is still stuck at the first layer of finance and what it will take to unlock the next one. From building solid infrastructure to leveraging data-driven intelligence, Dotun shares his vision for what truly innovative financial solutions look like.
He also weighs in on the regulation vs. innovation debate, highlighting how Nigeria’s Central Bank (CBN) has taken a more forward-looking, collaborative approach compared to many other African markets — and why that stakeholder-aligned model is the blueprint for the future of fintech regulation across the continent.
