Unleashing The Power of Southeast Asian Micro-SMEs With Boost

Boost may have started out as a homegrown e-wallet in Malaysia, but today it's a regional full spectrum fintech player in Southeast Asia offering a suite of solutions within its holistic fintech ecosystem. On top of that, Boost is also venturing into digital banking space locally, alongside its consortium partner RHB Bank.

In this edition of Tech Talk, we speak with Eric Chong, the CEO of Boost Biz, and Stefanus Warsito, the CEO of Boost Indonesia, on how Boost continues to serve the underserved communities, primarily micro-SMEs in Malaysia and Indonesia, by financially and digitally empowering them to be unstoppable.

Both Eric and Stefanus shared their in-depth insights into the gaps in their respective markets and how Boost comes in to provide the solutions that’s designed to meet the needs of micro-SMEs. They also deep dived into the innovative digital financial services and merchant solutions offered by Boost, that will help businesses reach their full potential.
