Zafin

We’re on the cusp of a new year, and 2025 promises to be an incredible one, filled with opportunity. But before we look forward, let’s take a moment to reflect on this last year which was one of the most pivotal in our company's history. From our acquisition by Nordic Capital, to the transition to our new CEO Charbel Safadi, there was a lot of change. But some things never change, like Zafin’s commitment to excellence, which recognized us as the winner of 2024 Microsoft ISV Innovation – Americas Partner of the Year Award, and winner of the BIAN Transformation Adoption Leader Award, among other distinctions. We also continued to celebrate our team and the diversity that makes Zafin such an incredible place to work. And of course, we launched new products, features and capabilities that continue to enhance the experience of our banking clients. 2024 was an amazing year – now on to 2025! Check out our recap of the last year in our video below.
