A recognised leader in decentralised trust infrastructure, Ernie has:✔ Launched Singapore’s first undergraduate blockchain class at NUS✔ Delivered production-grade blockchain platforms to banks✔ Led the Bachelor of Applied Computing in Finance at NTU

“We’re now beyond just raising awareness for fintech. GFI helps bring in-depth knowledge to the community — and helps professionals stay relevant.”

“Being a Fellow gives me the opportunity to give back to the industry I’ve learned so much from.”
