What a start to November it was for us at Affinidi!

We participated in the Singapore Fintech Festival 2022 (“SFF 2022”) that took place from 2–4 November at Singapore Expo, attracting over 2,000 organizations from 110 countries.

During this premier fintech festival, which was attended by leading banks, government departments, policymakers, investors, and financial companies, Affinidi showcased products catered to enterprises, individuals and developers.

Products Showcased

Ceal, an all-in-one credentials wallet to securely store and share your personal, work and education -related credentials. Within the event, close to 3000 digital credentials were issued in respect of business cards, digital collectibles and testimonials. These credentials may then be stored in individual’s mobile devices via the Ceal mobile application, and shared with others with the individual’s consent.

Verifin, which enables trusted mobile device transfers through the verification of customer identities, thereby creating a secure and seamless mobile banking experience.

In addition to showcasing our solutions, we also participated in industry discussions, meet-up sessions and booth interactions.

Talks and Programs

During SFF 2022, Glenn Gore, CEO of Affinidi and LemmaTree, participated in a roundtable discussion on data portability where he talked about how organizations can leverage new data points to provide better services to end-users. He reiterated the need for trust and data ownership to get a holistic view of any problem.

Glenn also spoke at the open mic session by OCBC, where he shared the stage with Mr Lim Wei Ming, Head of Data Architecture, Group Technology Architecture, OCBC Group. Glenn spoke about Verifin, and also about Affinidi’s vision and solutions to solve the existing identity and data security problems.

Varsha Jagdale, General Manager of Financial Services for Affinidi, participated in the Asian Digital bank CEO roundtable where she stressed the need for having open and trusted ecosystems through innovative technology architectures.

In addition, Mike Dunning, Director of Solutions Architect at Affinidi, moderated a fireside chat at OCBC’s booth. During this fireside chat, Mike showcased the Verifin solution and interacted with the enthusiastic crowd that had gathered around the booth.

In parallel, Summit Saurav, Product Manager at Affinidi, introduced Affinidi at the blockchain meet during SFF 2022 and shared our solutions across multiple industries like Financial Services, Recruitment, Travel, and Healthcare.

Issuance of digital certifications

Elevandi, the event organizers of SFF 2022, leveraged Affinidi’s technology to issue digital collectibles to participants to certify their attendance at various SFF 2022 activities.

Attendees of SFF 2022 were given a ‘Participation Digital Collectible’ that they could share on social media. Those who attended the ESG sessions were awarded a ‘House Laterem Digital Collectible’ while those who attended the Digital Assets plenary sessions were awarded the ‘House Arbor Digital Collectible.’

Participants who completed both the ‘ESG & Sustainable Finance’, and ‘Digital Assets & Web3 learning journeys at SFF 2022 were issued the ‘Valedictorian Digital Collectible’, and given the opportunity to win a free pass to Singapore FinTech Festival 2023.

Non-stop interactions at Affinidi’s booth

Meeting people face to face was the best part of the event for us! Interacting with best minds in the industry helped us to gather insights, observe emerging trends and get invaluable customer feedback. The lively discussions with current and potential partners validated our vision of ‘changing data ownership for good’. We are confident that these discussions could pave the way for a more open, streamlined, and transparent ecosystem with data ownership and user empowerment at its heart.

A huge shoutout to Elevandi, our partners, and everyone who made SFF 2022 a memorable one for all of us.

We look forward to seeing you at more such events.
