TORONTO, ON, September 11, 2019 – We are pleased to announce that nanopay Corporation has been named one of the CIX Top 20 companies.

CIX Canadian Innovation Exchange announced the CIX TOP 20 Early innovative Canadian technology startups that have been inducted into the annual program, which has been running for 12 years. The selected companies represent a diverse range of tech including software, AI, medtech, fintech, big data, aerospace, security, Saas and cleantech. These game-changing, on-the-rise companies are chosen by a selection committee of technology industry experts and investors from across the country. 

This year saw 433 profiles submitted from all regions of Canada. Companies were chosen based on a number of key factors including: product/service offering, depth of management, market opportunity and business model. 

“It’s an honour to be selected as one of Canada’s Top 20 innovative technology companies. At nanopay, innovation is in our DNA. We continue to challenge the status quo and advocate for change as we strive to achieve our long-term mission to offer the infrastructure to enable Central Bank Digital Currency,” said Laurence Cooke, CEO and Founder of nanopay Corporation. “The award is a reflection of the hard work and dedication of our team, and encourages us to believe that our mission is achievable.”
