In a significant development, Ibrahim Ibitade, the CEO and co-founder of cross-border payments startup Leatherback, has stepped down after five years at the helm. The company has appointed Toni Campbell, a managing partner at Kinfolk Venture Capital, as the interim CEO.

Under Ibitade's leadership, Leatherback expanded its global presence and established itself as a trusted partner in cross-border financial services. Campbell, who is excited to lead the company through this pivotal moment, aims to redefine global financial solutions and strengthen trust with customers.

Adedayo Amzat, Group Managing Director and CEO of Zedcrest Group, Leatherback's lead investor, will join the company as a non-executive director. The experienced leadership team is poised to continue Leatherback's journey as a top player in global financial services, making cross-border payments more accessible and seamless for all.
