Prifina participated in the World Funding Summit in LA and its Co-founder Jouko Ahvenainen spoke at the event about importance of a well working ecosystem and data for all new FinTech services, but especially for blockchain solutions and ICOs. Mr Ahvenainen emphasized that transparency, data and AI are fundamental components to get new finance models and instruments to work properly and create sustainable finance models. Blockchain and ICOs need also new models to manage customer data, KYC and user identity management. Prifina's solutions offer a new approach to manage user's identity and data in finance services. Customers get full control on their own data.
