I'm passionate about
Adetayo seeks to build labor justice, provide sustainable living wages, and fight unemployment throughout Africa by enabling commercial drivers to finance their own motorcycles, tuk-tuks and cars.
An idea worth spreading
Financial inclusion is an essential aspect of any economic growth. With better access to credit, households can leverage their earnings and assets to attain more wealth by undertaking productive investments. In developing countries, lack of access to finance is borne from high levels of informal markets. In an increasingly urbanised world, there remains strong barriers to formalisation. Adetayo cofounded MAX to fix this. Powered by innovation, technology, and eco-friendly infrastructure, MAX makes safer, cleaner vehicles affordable and accessible to independent and commercial mobility partners to increase the formalisation rates vis a vis financial inclusion in the mobility space in Africa.
