Our investments into iGTB Cash Cloud and iColumbus.ai platforms are the keys to a faster go-to-market, so that our client portfolios across APAC, Middle East, Europe and Americas can realize early returns on their technology investments.
Our simultaneous market-depth strategy is a result of years of investment into local Vietnamese regulations & payment systems, backed by iGTB’s local relationship managers & delivery teams out of Hanoi, and our longstanding partnership with Vietnamese FPT Information Services.”
