In line with this shift, Monica Technologies has been confirmed as the official Headline Sponsor for the Africa Blockchain, DeFi and Web3 Summit 2026, reinforcing the event’s growing influence within the continent’s digital economy.

The summit, scheduled for April 29, 2026, at the LagosOriental Hotel, will bring together founders, developers, investors, regulators, and policymakers shaping the future of blockchain and decentralized finance.

As one of Africa’s leading technology hubs, Lagos provides a strategic backdrop for conversations focused on real implementation and scalable innovation.

Monica Technologies operates Monica, a crypto to naira conversion platform built to simplify access to digital assets.

Users can convert cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, USDT, and Ethereum into naira with direct bank transfers, creating a seamless bridge between digital currencies and traditional financial systems.

“We are building Monica to solve real problems, not just to follow trends. Crypto adoption in Africa will only grow when it becomes simple, useful, and accessible to everyday people,” the founder of Monica Technologies said.

Beyond conversions, the platform integrates essential financial services including airtime purchases, data subscriptions, bill payments, and digital gift cards.

This functionality reflects a broader shift toward positioning crypto as a practical financial tool rather than a speculative asset.

As digital adoption continues to expand across Africa, there is a growing demand for solutions that combine accessibility with real functionality.

Platforms that can seamlessly integrate digital assets into everyday financial behavior are increasingly becoming central to how individuals and businesses engage with emerging technologies across the continent.

“As a company, we are focused on bridging the gap between digital assets and local economies. That is where the real opportunity lies,” the founder added.

By coming on board as Headline Sponsor, Monica is aligning closely with the summit’s vision of accelerating Web3 adoption while showcasing innovation that delivers tangible value.

The partnership is also expected to contribute to a more immersive and well-structured summit experience, where conversations are not only forward-looking but also grounded in real-world application.

With increased participation from key stakeholders, ABDS 2026 is positioning itself as a catalyst for collaboration that can drive meaningful outcomes beyond the event itself.

“Our involvement in ABDS 2026 is about contributing to the ecosystem. We want to be part of the conversations that move the industry forward,” the founder noted.

Attendees can expect high impact keynote sessions, in depth discussions, and stronger networking opportunities designed to foster meaningful connections.

Organizers noted that the partnership represents a major step toward delivering a world-class experience for participants across Africa and beyond.

“We see this as a long term commitment to supporting innovation across Africa, not just a one time sponsorship,” the founder concluded.

This brings SuperOps’ total funding to $54.4 million, reiterating the company’s exceptional growth and market disruption. 

Over the past year, SuperOps has tripled its customers and expanded its footprint to 104 countries, strengthening its global leadership.

The company is now taking its proven expertise in Managed Service Provider (MSP) technology into the broader IT market with the launch of its revolutionary Endpoint Management tool. Designed to supercharge IT team productivity, the tool enables IT teams to achieve more with fewer resources.

“IT teams worldwide are navigating complex challenges, including remote work and rising cybersecurity threats,” said Arvind Parthiban, co-founder and CEO of SuperOps. 

“At SuperOps, we are empowering these IT heroes with tools that transform their operations, reduce costs, and fuel growth. After revolutionizing the MSP space, we are thrilled to bring our AI expertise to internal IT teams with the launch of our Endpoint Management tool. The high demand and early successes validate that this is the future of IT operations.”

Over the last four years, SuperOps has become a trusted partner for MSPs worldwide, helping thousands of such service providers optimize operations through its unified AI-powered platform. Now, internal IT teams—already comprising 20% of SuperOps’ customer base—stand to benefit from the same transformative technology.

The foundation of the company’s success lies in its relentless focus on AI innovation. In 2024, the company unveiled Monica, a hyper-contextual AI guide that analyzes the MSP’s dataset to deliver personalized insights, automate routine workflows, and accelerate decision-making.

With Monica, MSPs and IT teams have seen up to a 30% improvement in operational efficiency.

SuperOps plans to use the new funding to expand its AI research and development, scale its offerings for mid-market and enterprise MSPs, and further extend its global reach. With IT spending projected to hit $5.74 trillion in 2025 (Gartner), the stakes have never been higher.

“The SuperOps team has proven their capability to disrupt the MSP technology market. With rapid product advancements and significant growth in global markets, SuperOps has become a major player. We are excited to support the expansion of their AI platform and scaling of their offerings to larger MSPs and internal IT teams,” said Ravi Rajamony, vice president at March Capital.

The Series C round, entirely backed by existing investors, highlights the continued confidence in SuperOps’ vision and execution.

“SuperOps has disrupted the stagnant MSP tools space, creating real value for MSPs through true innovation, and its entry into IT Endpoint Management promises to have similar impact. We are excited to continue to support the SuperOps team on their mission to empower IT service providers to scale, streamline operations and thrive in an increasingly competitive market,” said Todd Arfman at Addition.

Tarun Davda, managing director at Z47 added: “We are delighted to be part of SuperOps’ impressive growth. The platform has improved the businesses of MSPs worldwide. I am impressed by the team’s customer-centric approach to innovation, and their AI advancements. I am confident that SuperOps will continue to outpace the competition and create significant value for IT service providers”.
