The attendees are keener to know more about blockchain and how to migrate their business to harness the power of this new technology. Three (3) days had been a busy day as many students flocking the booth seeking for advise on how they can get the blockchain into their school project.

For the first time, there is a head of government delivering keynotes in a major fintech event, i.e. PM Narendra Modi of India. This means that the financial technology and blockchain especially gaining serious attention from government sector.

It’s a great meeting place! Unlike other exhibition, Singapore Fintech Festival brought NEM-Indo to meet the world wide b/c company, challenges us to exercise our pitching skills towards other blockchain company. It’s truly an excellent platform in connecting potential user-geek and prospective partnership worldwide.

Thank you for SG team for inviting us to this awesome event!! — Mutia Rachimi (NEM Indonesia’s Business Development)

The impressive Blockchain representation during this year’s Singapore Fintech Festival has been astronomically encouraging. The NEM booth itself was consistently inundated with great positive interest. NEM ANZ will be looking to be more involved with exhibitions of this nature, a very well done to the NEM Singapore team. -Jian Chan (Australia & New Zealand Lead), 2018.

Singapore Fintech opened a lot of opportunities for blockchain technology having Ripple, Hyperledger and NEM as the leading platforms of its kind made their presence known during the event. The very first summit I have attended where the top players in the blockchain industry was present. A manifestation that we can all co-exist in one environment. Kudos to NEM Singapore team for organising the NEM booth, and to the rest of the team who helped NEM ANZ, NEM Indonesia, to our participating partners Omniaz and ProximaX — for enduring the long walks and long talks, late lunch and dinner. Truly honored to have worked with you guys. Thank you for the passion, support and love for NEM. God bless! — Dona Rinon (NEM Middle East Chapter Leader)
