ClicCash founder Brandon Derrick carried the twin-island nation’s name through London this week, presenting at the Government of Québec’s UK delegation, joining a roundtable at the Canadian High Commission, and meeting Antigua and Barbuda’s Governor-General and High Commissioner at a charity gala held in support of the Governor-General’s Halo Foundation.
ClicCash, Antigua and Barbuda’s first registered Payment Service Provider (PSP-0001), represented the twin-island nation on the global stage at London Tech Week 2026, one of the world’s largest gatherings of technology founders, investors and government leaders, held this week at Olympia London.
ClicCash founder and CEO Brandon Derrick travelled to London as part of a delegation from the McGill Dobson Centre for Entrepreneurship, the Montréal-based incubator that has supported the company’s growth. Over three days, an Antiguan-built financial technology company found itself in rooms usually reserved for the world’s largest firms, and inside two of the diplomatic missions that connect Antigua and Barbuda, Canada and the wider Commonwealth.
On Thursday, ClicCash was invited to present at Quebec House, the official London home of the Government of Québec’s delegation to the United Kingdom. Mr. Derrick presented ClicCash, a fully regulated, Caribbean-built payments platform, to an audience of entrepreneurs and officials. The Antigua and Barbuda High Commission to the United Kingdom was represented by Mr. Brent Scotland, Second Secretary, who joined Mr. Derrick to record a short feature on ClicCash’s work. High Commissioner Her Excellency Karen-Mae Hill, OBE, who was in Antigua at the time, extended her support to the company.
On Friday, ClicCash joined a roundtable at Canada House, the Canadian High Commission to the United Kingdom, hosted by Mr. Sanjay Purohit, Canada’s Trade Commissioner for Information, Communications and Technology. Seated alongside other Dobson-backed startups and senior representatives of the McGill Dobson Centre, ClicCash was the only Antiguan-founded company in the room. For a business that operates in both Antigua and Canada, it was a fitting place to be.
“To stand in these rooms representing Antigua and Barbuda, as a homegrown, fully regulated payments company, is a proud moment, and it belongs to our whole country,” said Brandon Derrick, Founder and CEO of ClicCash. “We built ClicCash in Antigua, for the Caribbean, and we are now building a real bridge between our region and Canada. The interest we are seeing abroad confirms what we have believed from day one: world-class financial technology exists in Antigua and Barbuda.”
“As an Antiguan and Barbudan, I am very proud. ClicCash represented us really well, and I was struck by how well thought out the presentation was. It is wonderful to see the success they are already having so soon after launching. They are doing great work, and we are very proud of them,” said Mr. Brent Scotland, Second Secretary at the Antigua and Barbuda High Commission to the United Kingdom.
On Friday evening, Mr. Derrick attended Wings for Charity, a gala in support of the Halo Foundation, the charitable organisation championed by His Excellency Sir Rodney Williams, GCMG, Governor-General of Antigua and Barbuda. It was held at The Chancery Rosewood, the new London hotel within the former United States Embassy in Grosvenor Square. Convened ahead of Commonwealth meetings, the evening drew ministers, diplomats and High Commissioners from across the Commonwealth in aid of the Foundation’s work. Attending as a guest of the Antigua and Barbuda High Commission, Mr. Derrick met the Governor-General and High Commissioner Karen-Mae Hill.
