Tether and Rezo Money Collaborate to Promote Blockchain Education in Guinea 

28 August 2024 – Tether Operations Limited, the largest company in the digital asset industry, and Rezo Money, a digital payment platform, are pleased to announce a strategic collaboration aimed at advancing blockchain education across Guinea to foster digital literacy and financial inclusion in emerging markets.

As part of this collaboration, Rezo will organize interactive workshops at three major universities across Conakry, the capital city of the Republic of Guinea. These workshops will cover various topics, including the basics of blockchain and cryptocurrency payment methods. The aim is to provide a detailed understanding of how blockchain can be utilized for various practical applications, empowering students to leverage these technologies in their personal and professional lives.

Participants will be onboarded on the Rezo platform to engage in practical skills and interactive sessions to ensure they gain the required knowledge in blockchain technology and stablecoin payments through real-life use cases. This collaboration aims to achieve significant outreach and impact, reflecting Tether’s unwavering commitment to making a meaningful contribution to the digital education landscape in emerging markets.

Blockchain education is vital in fostering freedom and economic growth in emerging markets. This innovative technology provides significant benefits, including alternative banking solutions for the unbanked, streamlined remittance processing, and protection against inflation. By learning about blockchain technology, individuals can make informed financial decisions, enhance their economic stability, and actively contribute to the development of their communities.

“We are thrilled to collaborate with Rezo to bring blockchain education to Guinea. This initiative is a critical step in empowering students with the knowledge and skills needed to participate actively in the digital economy, a cause we are deeply committed to. By providing practical insights and real-life use cases, we aim to bridge the knowledge gap and promote financial inclusion in the region,” said Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether.

For Ibrahima Soumano, Co-founder and CEO of Rezo, “This collaboration marks a pivotal step in driving blockchain education to those who need it the most and in ways that they understand the most.”

Tether has been actively involved in various educational initiatives across Africa, including sponsoring the Africa Tech Summit, The African Bitcoin Conference in Ghana, collaborating with CBC during the Bitcoin Pizza Day and with Bitnob to drive education across universities in Ghana. These efforts demonstrate Tether’s continuous dedication to promoting blockchain and cryptocurrency education.
