In 2020 alone, program startups globally secured US$ 1 billion in sales opportunities.
One of Microsoft's most important partners in Brazil, 21 will now be able to nominate startups, which already receive investment from the company, to participate in the program after Microsoft's evaluation. “We are happy to be able to contribute even more to the training and technological development of these companies with services and products with so much potential, especially those that have priority solutions for Sinqia, such as BaaS, Open Banking Platform and Payment Hub. The collaboration is another important step in our mission to boost the financial market through innovation”, highlights Juliana Innecco, Head of Innovation at Torq Labs, Sinqia's innovation laboratory.
