“We congratulate the winners for their strong commitment to incorporating sustainable practices by applying innovations and technologies to the business models and operations in line with the UNSDGs. We look forward to their greater contribution to the future of sustainable development,” says Stanley Chong, Director, TechNode Global.

“To be a winner of this prestigious award is an extremely high honor and holds significant meaning for us,” said Quah Zheng Wei, CEO, and Co-founder, Accredify. “It underpins our vision that verifiable data is a sustainable and accessible way to achieve trusted information exchange between enterprises and individuals, which is the rudimentary element of our digital future, Web3. We hope that this recognition also encourages society to embrace and adopt TrustTech to reach this end-state of ‘trustless’ interactions.”

During the judging process, start-ups were evaluated against the value created by their product, the attractiveness of market opportunity, the viability of their business model, the capability of the management team, the firm’s growth potential, technological breakthrough, as well as its UN SDG sustainability element.
