His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has graciously granted four patents we filed locally for our upcoming securities exchange, Contisx Securities Exchange Plc. We are also pursuing corresponding global patents to ensure proper protection of the intellectual capital behind this mission. This is not an aggressive IP posture, but a necessary step to safeguard the innovations we are building.
At Contisx, we have developed new protocols tailored to the African context, reimagining how capital markets can drive investment inclusion and accelerate shared prosperity. These innovations are being translated into new technology and process stacks designed for scale, access, and efficiency.
One of the granted patents is titled: “System and Method for Bilateral Negotiation-Based Electronic Trading of Heterogeneous Financial Instruments with Automated Matching and Custodied Settlement.”
Register for Tekedia Mini-MBA edition 20 (June 8 – Sept 5, 2026).
Register for Tekedia AI in Business Masterclass.
Join Tekedia Capital Syndicate and co-invest in great global startups.
Register for Tekedia AI Lab.
We believe this framework addresses a foundational challenge within our markets and will contribute meaningfully to their evolution especially at the “Main Street”, not just the “Wal Street” level in Africa.
Mr. President, we are grateful for the grant of these rights. Additional applications are in progress as we continue to build with focus and urgency.
