Tech Talk with EMATA, the future of farmers financing

EMATA, focuses on making farmer financing right; tackling a huge paradox in Africa where agriculture accounts for 80% of employment and 30% of GDP but only 3% of lending.

Join Manon Loison, Head of Marketing @The LHoFT and InFiNe.lu for a conversation with Bram van den Bosch, CEO and co-founder of EMATA a Ugandan Fintech Company facilitating farmer financing in East Africa thanks to a digital and affordable financial solution which simplifies the cooperative day-to-day operations.

The free system, data-driven decision-making, enables to offer affordable loans that are tailored to the needs of each farmer.

EMATA is the winner of the accelerator programme CATAPULT: Inclusion Africa 2021 designed by the LHoFT Foundation, funded by Luxembourg’s Directorate for Development Cooperation and Humanitarian Affairs, and supported by many partners and stakeholders including our long-lasting partner InFine.
