As we approach the end of 2023, I take a moment to connect with you all, reflecting on a year that's been both challenging and rewarding. It’s been a journey shaped by the collective efforts and insights of our incredible team, valued clients, and strategic partners. Your support and guidance have been the cornerstones of our ability to navigate this dynamic landscape. We are thankful for the strategic partnerships that have enabled us to redefine our roadmap and customise our managed services for different projects and regions. For all this, I am profoundly grateful.

By Simon Keates. Last week marked a significant milestone for me and the team at Caspian One as we ventured to Poland, a country that's rapidly becoming a hub for technological innovation and talent. This visit was more than just a trip; it was a strategic step to reinforce our commitment to delivering exceptional technology solutions globally.

Following a rigorous RFP process spearheaded by the LCUC CIO group, Caspian One was selected as the preferred partner to deliver an Open Banking solution tailored to the credit union system in Canada. As a result, a collective of 10 large credit unions, comprised of both LCUC and non-LCUC participants, have committed to partnering with Caspian One to develop a customized version of their Open Banking platform that meets the unique needs of the credit union system.

In September, Caspian One’s Board Directors reached new heights… mountain climbing 3,096 mt above sea level, all in aid for charity, sponsored by Mike Gawthorne and the rest of the team at Hawker Chase.

In today’s article, we explore three key issues that most impact our FinTech communities and partners. This includes the importance of balancing growth whilst preserving culture, the difficulties in accessing required skills and expertise - and the complexities of meeting and delivering on expectations. We also share how Caspian One has supported these businesses in achieving their growth plans - with our outcome-based project delivery services.
