Skills & Capacity Building

Finding the right programme for your business!

The FinTech space has recorded impressive growth over the past few years, and the development of the sector in Mauritius is attracting interest all over the world. Some of the major drivers of growth in the FinTech ecosystem are demographics, mobile phone access and financial inclusion, however, finding the right skills and talents, a lack of market data and limited funding options can also act as constraints on growth for many FinTech companies.
