Proud to announce that two of AFG Partners ten portfolio companies Aspire and SESAMm have made it onto this year’s global CB Insights Top #Fintech100!

Link: https://lnkd.in/e2GXjXHa

From a pool of over 19,000 Fintechs worldwide, this list recognizes the fastest-growing private companies working on groundbreaking financial technology.  Arguably one of the more prestigious lists in the industry - and even more so with the list moving this year from the Top 250 to the Top 100.

Happy to also see we have one Asian born company and one European born company represented, which is reflective of AFG's mission to be the partner of choice for Global B2B/Enterprise Fintechs that want to grow in Asia.

Congratulations to Andrea Baronchelli, Giovanni Casinelli, Sylvain Forté, Florian AUBRY, Pierre RINALDI and their teams for this great and well deserved recognition.  We at AFG are looking forward to continuing working with you to help you scale your businesses!!

Also a special shout out to Unit and its founders Itai Damti and Doron Somech for making the list too - been fun and honor playing a small part in your story and too bad you were born before AFG was :)
