About Us

Johan and Wisnu met each other at BNI. Wisnu was the project lead for the new core banking system in the move to a branchless bank. Johan was the lead developer building the solution. Over the years, they realized many (small) banks in Indonesia face challenges around becoming branchless, mobile and modern. Together, they started building a solution to replace the old fashioned systems.

Thierry and Hugo have both built successful companies in the past. They have been working with financial institutions in Indonesia for the past 5 years. When they heard the story of Silvia, the decision to help bring it to market was easy.
