Marjory incubée par Area42, le lab d'innovation de Credendo

Marjory est la premier projet incubé par Area42, le laboratoire d'innovation créé par Credendo, l'agence belge d'assurance crédit à l'export.

Marjory, a tech startup which enables service providers such as insurers and fintechs to integrate into marketplace operator systems, has launched in a private beta. Kamel Tansaout, CEO of the company, tells GTR that the beta involves a European e-tailer, which currently operates one of the biggest marketplaces in the region, as well as selected service providers.
