BOB Lord, chief digital officer (CDO) of IBM, has just wrapped up a panel discussion at the Singapore FinTech Festival at the Singapore Expo, during which he enthused about the future of financial technology (fintech).
There's no let-up in his fervour about the latest hot big industry, as he sits down with The Business Times minutes after, cordial and all smiles. "The (Singapore) government is really getting behind it now, which is really fantastic," he says as he waxes lyrical about the sector that suddenly erupted in popularity here in 2016, and even scored an inaugural festival last November.
Mr Lord, whose full name is Robert William Lord, is enthusiastic like that.
