Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, and acclaimed actor Idris Elba joined forces to discuss the future of financial inclusion for Ghanaian creatives.
Held at the Jubilee House on February 15, 2024, their dialogue focused on unlocking the potential of Africa’s vibrant creative arts scene by integrating Ghanaian artistes seamlessly into the global financial ecosystem.
One exciting prospect emerged: a new financial system powered by blockchain technology. This innovative solution aims to empower African artistes by simplifying and securing global payments for their work, regardless of location or platform.
Bawumia expressed confidence in the system’s potential, highlighting Ghana’s advanced digital payments infrastructure as a key advantage.
According to him, the new system which would be launched later this year, will pave the way for Ghanaian creatives to thrive on the global stage.
The Vice President applauded Idris Elba’s efforts to connect African creatives with the global market.
