The power of collaboration and innovation was resonant at the MTN MoMo API Innovations Workshop, which was held today at the Golden Tulip Hotel in Kampala.
The event brought together developers, innovators, and industry experts to explore the potential of MoMo APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) in driving smarter, more inclusive financial services across Africa.
It is important to note that APIs are the building blocks of digital innovation because they connect systems, simplify processes, and power everything from payments to better customer engagement.
Inclusive Technology: The Key to Transforming Lives
The workshop’s theme, “Building Together,” resonated deeply with attendees, emphasising the importance of collaboration in creating solutions that make a positive impact.
As Albert Gitta, the MTN MoMo Chief Information Officer (CIO), noted, “Every solution we create should make a positive impact. Without MTN MoMo and developers like you, many people wouldn’t fully participate in the economy.”
“That’s exactly why we came together; to collaborate, share, and discover how MoMo APIs can drive smarter, more inclusive financial services across Africa,” he added.
This sentiment echoed throughout the event, highlighting the critical role that inclusive technology plays in promoting economic growth and social development.
Unlocking the Potential of MoMo APIs

“With the right combinations, these APIs become enablers of everyday impact,” he emphasised.
