LemonEdge is the first low-code development platform designed for financial services. And with low-code projected to reach $44.5B by 2026, the company is well-positioned to enjoy considerable growth over the coming years.
LemonEdge is a disruptor specialising in back- and middle-office technologies and its tools are designed specifically for financial services. It's fully customised platforms and single applications can also be built 80% quicker than more traditional approaches, and can manage complex accounting processes financial data and transactions.
CEO Gareth Hewitt previously founded and sold two successful start-ups, and this proven reputation appeals greatly to investors. The company seeks to shake up the previously stagnant sector of back and middle-office technology.
