South Africa's fintech industry is booming, valued at over USD 1.1 billion and growing at close to 16% a year. And right at the centre of that growth is AI, quietly reshaping everything from fraud detection to product design to the way teams work day to day. Join us at Salt for an evening with two experts from leading South African fintech businesses, sharing how they've actually put AI to work. Not the theory, the reality: what's been adopted, what's changed in their workflows, and what it means for the products they're building. Expect an honest, practical conversation, drinks in hand, with plenty of room for your questions. Your speakers: Dewald Müller - Head of Saas & AI, Stitch Fran Thring - Head of Product, SnapScan 📍 Salt Offices, 130 Bree Street, Cape Town 🗓 Wednesday, 16 September | 17:00–20:00 🎟 Limited spots available
