FinSense Africa and Crescent Tech Group Formalize Strategic Partnership

FinSense Africa is pleased to announce the signing of a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Crescent Tech Group, formalised at the AI EVERYTHING KENYA x GITEX KENYA Expo in Nairobi on 21st May 2026.

The agreement was signed by Aashifa Saleh, Managing Director of Crescent Tech Group, and Imran Sumra, Chief Executive Officer of Finsense Africa, marking the beginning of a collaboration that both organisations see as a defining moment for enterprise technology in East Africa.

What the Partnership Represents

The MOU brings together two organisations with highly complementary capabilities. Crescent Tech Group is a leading technology solutions provider specialising in enterprise infrastructure, cloud solutions, networking, cybersecurity, and digital transformation across East Africa. Finsense Africa focuses on API-based development and management, DevSecOps, engineering as a service, resource augmentation, and AI-driven enterprise solutions.

Together, the partnership is designed to deliver what both companies describe as complete digital transformation, combining enterprise infrastructure expertise with software and AI innovation under a unified strategic alliance. For clients, this means end-to-end technology delivery under one team and one contract, removing the friction of managing multiple vendors across complex technology stacks.

In Their Own Words

Speaking at the signing ceremony, Ian Chomba, Marketing Manager at Crescent Tech Group, described the partnership as a meeting of market strengths:

"What makes this partnership with Finsense Africa exciting is that it’s not just a collaboration on paper. It’s a marriage of strengths in the market, from infrastructure and networking to fintech digital transformation."

Ishaq Kassam, Chief Commercial Officer of Finsense Africa, spoke to what the partnership means for clients across the region:

"The region is witnessing a one-of-a-kind strategic partnership MOU signing between Finsense Africa and Crescent Tech Group. This partnership provides end-to-end solutions from hardware infrastructure to AI. Clients get delivery under one team, one contract."

Looking Ahead

The partnership was announced at the AI Everything Kenya x GITEX Expo, one of East Africa’s most significant technology events, bringing together innovators, investors, and enterprise decision-makers from across the continent. The choice of setting was intentional — both organisations are committed to building in public and contributing meaningfully to the regional technology ecosystem.

Finsense Africa and Crescent Tech Group are aligned in their commitment to accelerating enterprise digital transformation across Africa, delivering scalable, AI-enabled solutions designed to meet the evolving needs of African businesses.
