As Africa’s fintech transformation gains momentum, PayAngel – a trusted cross-border payments platform connecting the diaspora to the continent – will feature at the Africa Business Conference at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg Center in Washington, D.C., on Saturday, April 26, 2025.
Representing PayAngel at the Voice of Africa’s Diaspora Connect Room, a flagship session hosted in collaboration with the Africa Business Club at Johns Hopkins Carey Business School, will be Joseph Elvis A. Lamptey, the company’s Director of Growth. The session will explore how financial technology is helping build inclusive prosperity across borders.
As Director of Growth, Joseph has played a key role in executing PayAngel’s expansion strategy, with extensive experience in diaspora engagement and regional growth. His efforts, within a strong, collaborative team, have contributed to growing the user base and positioning PayAngel as a trusted payments solution with Kenya and Ghana as the company’s sub-regional hubs.
PayAngel’s trajectory is powered by the visionary leadership of Founder and CEO, Jones Amegbor, whose mission to reimagine remittances with fairness, transparency, and impact has positioned the company as one of Africa’s most promising fintech disruptors. Under Jones’ leadership, PayAngel operates across 22 African countries, as well as two Asian countries-India and Bangladesh. PayAngel continues to develop inclusive solutions such as its unique and flagship product, Direct-to-Merchant Remittances (D2MR).
Joseph’s participation at this global event reflects PayAngel’s ongoing engagement in key conversations on African fintech, from World Bank & IMF Annual Meetings to Tech in Ghana and academic collaborations. Each platform reinforces the company’s commitment to innovation, integrity, and diaspora-focused development guided by strong governance and a unified team.
As PayAngel enters a new phase of growth, the focus remains clear: to build a financial ecosystem that uplifts communities, empowers local businesses, and transforms remittances for a lasting impact.
“It’s truly exciting to empower local businesses with access to new revenue streams from the diaspora,” said Joseph Elvis A. Lamptey. “Even more powerful is how we’re helping them reduce reconciliation headaches and finally get paid in real time.”
