We believe the world will look very different after this pandemic, as it did after the second world war and the financial crisis of 2008. We foresee a gigantic acceleration towards digitalization. Especially in the B2B space which has lagged behind B2C peers.

But the pandemic will change that equation. We are conscious of the challenges. But the most iconic companies are often founded in times of such upheavals. But we believe our odds are better because of the opportunity to configure ourselves at a very young stage for the new world without the pressure to defend existing revenue streams, head count balancing or pivoting the business model.

We are better prepared to seize the opportunities this new world throws at us. If you are interested, please submit your resume to janani@tazapay.com. Show more Show less
