Singapore — June 16, 2020 — Fintech innovator ABC Technology today announced its recognition as a Technology Pioneer by the World Economic Forum (WEF).

Past recipients include Airbnb, Google, Kickstarter, Mozilla, Spotify, TransferWise, Twitter, and Wikimedia.

 

“ABC Technology and its fellow pioneers are developing cutting edge technologies all over the world. Beyond their innovations, these firms are contributing greatly to improving the state of the world,” said Susan Nesbitt, Head of WEF’s Global Innovators Community, of which the Technology Pioneers community is an integral part of.

 

This acknowledgment comes hot on the heels of ABC Technology being named by research firm IDC as among the 101 fastest growing fintech companies in the Asia-Pacific region (excluding Japan) in April.
