CEO of Interswitch | Lagos, Nigeria
As an undergrad, Mitchell Elegbe struggled to make ends meet by making a business out of dubbing cassettes he borrowed from friends. Today, Mitch or "Mr. Cashless" as he is fondly called is the founder and Group Managing Director of Interswitch Limited, a payment processing company.
An encounter with an ATM seizing his card in Scotland inspired the idea for Interswitch.
