Flowt's innovative approach to lending could significantly impact the accessibility of financial resources for climate-focused small businesses in Africa. By leveraging AI to assess financial viability without traditional collateral, Flowt is addressing a critical gap in the market. However, the success of this model will depend on the scalability of their technology and the ability to build trust with both lenders and borrowers.
