The Independent Uganda: You get the Truth we Pay the Price
Paris, FRANCE | THE INDEPENDENT | Eversend, a Neobank for Africans led by Ugandan entrepreneur Stone Atwine, has closed its oversubscribed equity crowdfunding campaign on Seedrs for just over $1 million.

Funds from the Seedrs round will be used for product development, accelerate user acquisition efforts, beef up working capital, expand its market to Nigeria, Francophone Africa, and Europe and use some of the funds for regulatory compliance.
