Our take
Genesis Global’s low-code platform is purpose-built for financial markets organizations, providing developers with the tools to build applications with the speed, performance and flexibility needed to supercharge an organization’s growth and scalability.
The company’s buy-to-build IT transformation model has been adopted by a range of leading financial institutions worldwide, including Citi, BNY Mellon, ING, and Itaú Securities.
The company’s strategic partnerships and impressive list of backers (including Tiger Global Management (lead), Bank of America, BNY Mellon, and Citi) have seen the company flourish, tripling its revenue and the size of its team in 2021 alone.
Genesis Global has continued to experience exponential growth, in 2022 opening a software development centre in Bengaluru (bringing its global office count up to 8) and releasing significant updates to the Genesis Platform. With continued momentum, Genesis Global is well-positioned to remain a market-leading low-code development platform.
