SINGAPORE, April 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Trident Digital Tech Holdings Ltd. (Nasdaq: TDTH) (“Trident” or the “Company”), a Singapore-headquartered digital technology company listed on Nasdaq, today announced that it has signed a 50/50 Joint Venture (JV) agreement with Aliska Business Advisory and Research Limited (“Aliska”), a Ghana-based financial advisory and technology services firm. The resulting JV entity, Trident Aliska Digital Tech Ghana Ltd., will jointly develop and commercialize proprietary digital technology solutions for public and private sector clients across Ghana, with projected combined revenue of up to US$800 million over the first five years of operation.

Under the terms of the agreement, Trident will lead technology development, platform engineering, and technical system management, while Aliska will focus on project research, design, securing government approvals, permits, and project funding. Both parties will jointly oversee system maintenance, AI and machine learning component upgrades, and the operational training required to support the nationwide deployment of all technology solutions developed under the partnership.

The JV will be governed by a Board of Directors comprising two directors appointed by each of Trident and Aliska.

Ghana represents one of Africa’s most dynamic digital technology markets. The country’s government-led Digital Ghana Agenda has accelerated investment in e-government services, fintech infrastructure, and broadband connectivity, creating a rapidly expanding addressable market for the solutions Trident Aliska Digital Tech Ghana Ltd. intends to offer.

“We are pleased to partner with Trident in advancing Ghana’s digital transformation agenda while ensuring the satisfaction of stakeholder objectives,” said Aleem Kumi, Chief Executive Officer of Trident Aliska Digital Tech Ghana Ltd. “Through this joint venture, we are positioned to introduce secure, scalable technology that enhances operational efficiency, strengthens compliance frameworks, and advances Ghana’s broader digital economy ambitions. We see immediate opportunities across e-government identity verification, financial services infrastructure, and public sector data management.”

Soon Huat Lim, Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer of Trident, added: “This joint venture is structured to unlock meaningful synergies between our technology capabilities and Aliska’s deep local expertise and government relationships. Ghana is one of the fastest-growing digital technology markets in sub-Saharan Africa, and this partnership positions Trident to capture a significant share of that growth. We expect to share further details on the JV’s initial project pipeline in the coming weeks.”
