About The Program

Tribe Fintech works with financial institutions around the world to help them co-create and orchestrate their own SME ecosystems and partners in each market.

Their Platform-as-a-Service business model means that Tribe’s financial institution partners can use their data-driven platform insights to customise and integrate their ecosystem partners and products for a fraction of the cost and in minimal time – offering SMEs a ‘beyond banking’ and Netflix-style platform of value-added services designed just for them.

Tribe is building an ever-expanding integrated ecosystem of global and local non-financial service partners across the core pillars of digital business tools, practical business education and business networks – all with the aim of helping SMEs start and scale their businesses in the digital economy. Tribe’s current partner offerings include verified business profiles, easy-to-use ecommerce sites, accounting software, inventory management and logistics as well as business courses and pathways provided by global tech giants and local universities and SME organisations.

Granular sex-disaggregated data is collected and fed back to financial institutions, giving them a deeper business understanding of SMEs beyond rear-view financials.
