About
Ibifuro Apiafi-Halliday, known as Furo, is a co-host of The Open Africa Podcast, one of the most listened-to shows covering Africa's fintech, banking, and startup ecosystem. Based in Nigeria, she brings both industry knowledge and a distinct analytical voice to a show that breaks down the deals, regulatory changes, product launches, and funding rounds that define the African tech market week to week. Her presence has helped establish the podcast as a space where complex financial developments are made accessible without being simplified out of meaning.
Apiafi-Halliday belongs on the Borderless 100 because the work of making Africa's fast-moving financial and technological landscape understandable is essential to building an ecosystem in which more people can participate. Her voice is part of what the ecosystem uses to make sense of itself — and her presence as an authoritative commentator in African financial media represents something worth noting and building on.
