(SeaPRwire) –   LONDON, April 29, 2026 — Thunes, the Smart Superhighway for global money movement, is delighted to announce that Chloé Mayenobe, Deputy CEO of Thunes, has been named the recipient of the Inspiration category award at the 2026 Women in Payments EU & UK Awards.

 

 

This prestigious award was presented at the Women in Payments Awards ceremony in London on April 28, recognizing women who drive impactful change, lead with vision, and shape the future of the global payments ecosystem.

The Inspiration Award celebrates leaders who motivate others through their thought leadership and unwavering commitment to the industry. In her acceptance speech, Chloé emphasized that while infrastructure and interoperability are rarely the first terms associated with inspiration, they act as the ultimate equalizer in the modern financial world.

Chloé Mayenobe, Deputy CEO of Thunes, stated: “I’m honored to receive this Inspiration Award, but the true inspiration is the mission I lead at Thunes. We are challenging the status quo of global payments, proving that no market is beyond reach. By connecting fragmented ecosystems, we go beyond just moving money—we’re inspiring a world where location no longer dictates a business’s potential or access to financial services. I am grateful to every person who has supported me along the way for this award, and above all, to our team of Thunesters who rally behind our mission and serve as my daily inspiration.”
