Vodafone Business, the enterprise arm of Vodafone Ghana, has announced various support packages for the growth of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) in Ghana.

This initiative is aimed at underlining Vodafone’s holistic support to SMEs nationwide and empowering businesses to leverage on technology to deliver innovative offerings to boost their businesses.

Commenting, Director of Vodafone Business, Tawa Bolarin, reiterated Vodafone’s commitment to cushioning indigenous enterprises with the needed digital support services tailored to drive sustainable business growth.

“Every year, we dedicate weeks to recognize, appreciate, reward, and engage with our esteemed business customers who are uniquely positioned to be the backbone of the Ghanaian economy. Thus, in the spirit of partnering together, we have designed propositions that will enable growth for the businesses of our customers through a series of initiatives.”

Tawa Bolarin

Tawa Bolarin noted that the remaining weeks of this month of September will see fifty (50) indigenous businesses receive free premium grade websites when they sign up to Vodafone’s ‘2 Moorch business Bundles’, a value-laden mobile offering and best on the market today. This is expected to extend the reach of their businesses, she indicated. In addition to this, she averred that enterprises will be provided with digital channels to make their services more accessible to a wider audience, ultimately accelerating customers and revenue.

Simply tell us the skills you want to develop, which will accelerate your growth and profitability, and we will arrange this for you. Also, we plan to embark on a paid advertising campaign for selected businesses to promote their products and services, which will further expand their reach and customer base.”

Tawa Bolarin further added that Vodafone Ghana has a special package for their trusted customers.

“For our customers, we have a full sponsorship of reward and loyalty packages for them. At Vodafone Business, we understand how critical loyalty and retention are to any business. So, we have sponsored rewards which businesses can give to their customers to reward them for their loyalty.’’

The Director of Vodafone Business, reiterated the commitment of her outfit in business development in Ghana. She also mentioned that Vodafone Ghana will assist some local companies with free registration to enable smaller businesses to improve their professional image and qualify for even bigger opportunities.

She further stated that some selected businesses will enjoy 50% savings on their Vodafone bill, making them more profitable for the next two weeks and also, there will be fantastic rewards for high transacting Vodafone Cash merchants.

“All you have to do is be our customer to be eligible for selection, to the rewards we have in plan.”

However, Vodafone’s leadership in supporting SMEs to be productive, grow and succeed is unquestionable based on its track record.

Fidelity Demands Africa Own Its Digital Future At a time when Africa’s digital economy is accelerating at an unprecedented pace, Fidelity Bank Ghana has delivered one of the strongest messages yet on the continent’s technological future. The bank made a bold and urgent case for Africa to stop depending on foreign controlled digital systems and begin building its own infrastructure capable of retaining value, strengthening currencies, and driving long term economic sovereignty. As one of the key sponsors of the 3i Africa summit, Fidelity Bank did not just show up to participate. It arrived with a message that resonated deeply across conference halls and policy discussions. Fidelity Bank emerged as one of the loudest voices championing a future where African nations control the very digital rails that power their economies. Digital Infrastructure Is The New Economic Power One of the defining moments of the summit came during a high level panel discussion on digital public infrastructure, where Adeline Aryee delivered a statement that immediately captured the attention of participants. She declared that if Africa builds its own digital rails, it naturally retains the value created by those systems. Her message was clear and uncompromising. In previous decades, national infrastructure was measured by roads, bridges, ports, and airports. Today, the true engines of economic power are payment platforms, identity systems, financial technology ecosystems, and digital marketplaces. According to Aryee, digital public infrastructure is no longer a luxury. It is now a strategic national asset. Her remarks struck at the heart of one of Africa’s most pressing economic concerns. Despite growing digital adoption, many transactions across the continent still pass through foreign payment systems, resulting in value leakage and continued pressure on local currencies. Ghana’s Success Story Becomes A Continental Blueprint Aryee highlighted Ghana’s progress in financial inclusion, mobile payments, and digital banking, describing the country as an emerging model for other African economies. Over the years, Ghana has invested heavily in domestic payment systems such as GhIPSS and its flagship platform, Gh-link. These systems have significantly expanded access to financial services while promoting digital transactions across urban and rural communities. Yet Aryee argued that inclusion alone is no longer enough. The next chapter for Africa, she insisted, must focus on ownership. She questioned why local transactions continue to depend on foreign rails when domestic infrastructure already exists. According to her, such dependence creates unnecessary external exposure and limits the continent’s ability to fully capture the economic benefits of its growing digital market. Her comments triggered intense debate among summit participants, many of whom acknowledged the urgent need for policy reforms and infrastructure investments. Market Driven Innovation Takes Center Stage Beyond infrastructure, Fidelity Bank also made a strong case for innovation that begins with real market needs. During the Ecosystem Roundtable on platforms, talent, and digital markets, Prince Osei Hyeaman-Addai shared insights from the bank’s years of digital financial innovation. He stressed that successful digital products are not built in boardrooms or based on assumptions. Instead, they are created by listening carefully to the market and understanding customer pain points. According to him, the market itself reveals the problems that need solving, the type of platform required, and the path toward scalable growth. His comments reflected a growing shift in African fintech circles, where customer centered design is becoming essential for product adoption and long term relevance. Trust And Credibility Remain The Real Currency Prince also emphasized that technology alone does not guarantee success. In his view, trust, credibility, and strong operational structures remain the real foundations of successful innovation. He noted that while investor interest in African fintech continues to rise, startups must prove they can deliver sustainable solutions, maintain transparency, and build products that respond to local realities. This perspective reflects Fidelity Bank’s own journey in digital transformation. Over the years, the bank has built strategic collaborations with leading fintech players, including IT Consortium, helping pioneer wallet to bank integrations and mobile financial solutions in Ghana. These partnerships have helped position Fidelity as one of Ghana’s most innovation driven financial institutions. A Defining Moment For Africa’s Digital Future Fidelity Bank’s participation at the 3i Africa Summit 2026 was more than a corporate appearance. It was a strategic declaration. At a time when Africa is racing to build competitive digital economies, the bank’s message was impossible to ignore. Africa cannot simply consume technology created elsewhere. It must own the infrastructure, shape the platforms, and capture the value generated by its digital future. As conversations from the summit continue to ripple across financial and policy circles, one thing is becoming increasingly clear. Africa’s next economic revolution may not be built on oil, gold, or minerals. It may be built on digital rails designed, owned, and powered by Africans.
