In conversation with the CEO, Dick Tam
Q. What were the challenges that you had to go through in your initial years?
Building a business requires a tremendous amount of work during the startup phase. But building a loyal and stable team presents the toughest of challenges for all businesses, especially in the Financial Technology domain. That’s why I believe people are the most important asset of our company and I committed myself to build a team that shared my vision. Long hours and the up-and-down roller coaster rides are much more enjoyable when the entire team is willing to push hard to achieve a common goal.
Q. Between ever-changing market needs, many IT leaders don’t know what they really have—even when they think they do. How do you manage to stay relevant to the consumer interests and needs?
Speaking of the ever-changing financial market and IT industry, perhaps most clients don’t know what is best for them. We encourage innovation and keep creating and developing new services that follow the latest market trend in the global perspective. We also adopt the fastest development life cycle in this fast paced environment to make sure clients have a chance to really try and see the services. Uniqueness and comprehensiveness of our solution are also one of the keys to attract clients』 eyeballs.
Q. What do you think is the next big thing in technology?
We believe the next big thing in technology is the use of Big Data and block chain technology in every aspect of the digital world. Things and behaviors may become more predictive and more transparent.
Q. A tech company needs to be very agile with product and service innovation in order to withstand the competition. What is your approach towards innovation?
