Scale360 establishes Centre of Excellence to develop Thai Fintech talent

Scale360, a UK-based fintech start-up that develops cutting-edge software to power banks’ digital transformation, has established a Bangkok Digital Centre of Excellence to service banks’ growing need for financial technology and develop local skills in leading global technologies.

Thailand’s Board of Investment has recognised Scale360’s commitment to developing skills in Thailand, awarding the company a special eight year status to help attract top talent and establish the Digital Centre of Excellence in Bangkok.

Combining Microservices application architecture with Scala and Java programming languages, Scale360 develops technology platforms that deliver better outcomes for customers across all channels via a digital banking infrastructure. Scale360 has established its own Thai language learning programme to advance the knowledge of skills required to build its Digital Banking 4.0 platform, with the aim of providing local developers with knowledge of programming languages used by global Internet giants like Twitter and LinkedIn.

“We have a very clear vision of how banks need to operate in the digital age, and to deliver the kind of services today’s mobile and connected customers’ need requires a new approach to technology. This means using global leading technologies which are not yet prevalent in banking. At Scale360 we have developed our own learning programmes to give our employees the tools they need to compete in a global marketplace,” said Neville Molyneux, managing director, Scale360.

Scale360 has implemented solutions-focused technology to leading global businesses for over 10 years, helping businesses define and execute their digital strategy, and create growth opportunities driven by enhanced customer-centric digital experiences.  Scale360’s developers have already completed transformation projects in Vietnam and are working with a challenger bank in the UK.

“Scale360’s solutions enable pure digital play; we help our partners build greater customer loyalty and engagement, developing in-depth understanding of the digital customer that ultimately grows online revenue. It’s not just financial services – we’ve given retailers, hoteliers and charities the tools to embark on their digital journey,” added Neville.
