Nigeria’s financial elite are set to convene at a major networking summit as Bujeti, the Y Combinator-backed financial management platform, announces “Coin & Connect with Bujeti.” This premier event is designed to bring together the nation’s top financial executives and enterprise decision-makers for high-level discussions on automating finance operations and controlling business spending.
The exclusive gathering, set for Tuesday, December 16, 2025, at Club House Lagos, will showcase Bujeti’s latest innovations in business finance software and tax automation technology.
Organized in strategic partnership with Premia Business Network (PBN), the high-profile finance summit expects to attract more than 200 senior executives including Chief Executive Officers, Chief Financial Officers, Chief Operating Officers, finance directors, business consultants, certified accountants, tax auditors, and influential finance industry leaders across Nigeria’s business ecosystem.
Fintech Innovation Addresses Financial Management Challenges
According to Cossi Achille Arouko, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Bujeti, African enterprises require more than traditional business funding. They need sophisticated financial control systems. “This event represents a transformative moment as we roll out enterprise-grade financial solutions that empower African companies with advanced tools to optimize spending management, enhance operational transparency, and establish the financial credibility necessary for sustainable business growth and market expansion.”
Bujeti’s cloud-based financial operations platform currently supports more than 5,000 finance professionals operating across Nigeria and Kenya. The Lagos-headquartered fintech company has established itself as an an essential infrastructure provider in Africa’s rapidly expanding B2B financial technology sector.
Recently, Bujeti formalized a strategic collaboration with Nigeria’s Small and Medium Enterprises Development Agency (SMEDAN) to drive digital financial transformation initiatives benefiting thousands of Nigerian SMEs.
Executive Insights on Finance Automation and Regulatory Compliance
The Coin & Connect program features a keynote presentation delivered by senior officials from Nigeria’s Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), addressing contemporary taxation trends, enterprise financial management practices, and Nigeria’s evolving tax compliance and e-invoicing regulatory framework.
Expert-led panel discussions will feature Chief Financial Officers, finance transformation consultants, and business operations leaders from prominent Nigerian corporations and high-growth technology startups. Discussion topics encompass finance automation trends shaping 2026, artificial intelligence applications enhancing financial reporting accuracy, strategic leadership approaches advancing finance team performance, and emerging risk management priorities for Nigerian business leaders.
An intimate fireside conversation with Bujeti’s executive leadership—including Arouko and Chief Operating Officer Samy Chiba—will explore scaling financial infrastructure, building enterprise-ready finance systems, and developing integrated financial technology stacks specifically designed for Nigerian and African enterprise requirements.
Solving Africa’s Finance Infrastructure Gap
The product launch timing addresses urgent needs within Africa’s business landscape. Although Nigerian SMEs generate over 46% of the nation’s Gross Domestic Product and provide employment for more than 84% of Nigeria’s workforce, the majority operate without robust financial management infrastructure, limiting access to business credit and constraining organizational growth potential.
“When Nigerian businesses demonstrate financial control, transparency, and operational structure, it fundamentally transforms their market positioning—from internal money management to external stakeholder engagement and investment readiness,” explained Samy Chiba, Co-founder and Chief Operating Officer of Bujeti. “Our mission centers on embedding financial discipline and operational efficiency into everyday business practices through intelligent automation and data-driven analytics.”
Bujeti’s integrated financial management platform consolidates payroll processing, expense tracking and management, corporate card programs, vendor payment automation, invoice generation and management, and real-time financial reporting within a unified dashboard system. This provides Nigerian businesses with comprehensive visibility and centralized control over capital flows across departmental teams, budget allocations, and approval workflows. The platform’s AI-powered capabilities deliver automated fraud detection, intelligent contract analysis, predictive cash flow modeling, and proactive financial risk alerts.
