Exness Fintech Scholarships is designed to create a pathway to academic excellence and career development for outstanding, underprivileged, talented individuals, empowering them to be the next generation of tech leaders. In partnership with the esteemed University of Cape Town (UCT), the country’s most prestigious institution, Exness will once again support the educational pursuits of university students in science and tech-related courses.
