Rapid Expansion

Lattice80 has been proactive in its global expansion plans this year, signing several memorandum of understanding (MOU) agreements with other key fintech hubs not just in Asia but across the globe (some yet to be announced).

With plans to open more hubs in India, London, New York, and the Middle East, Lattice80 and its partners are en-route to establishing a globally-connected fintech ecosystem.

«We see tremendous interest in Japan from the fintech teams sitting at Lattice80, as a member of the international fintech community, it’s only right that we help to make the Japanese market, with its big push towards fintech, more accessible to startups in Singapore,» said Joe Seunghyun Cho, Founding CEO of Lattice80 and Chairman of Marvelstone Group.
