That experience and wisdom will, I am certain, contribute hugely to the next important phase of the growth of the business."

 

Richard Cooper said:

"It is clear that Insig AI is operating in a fascinating and fast-growing area in the fintech space, particularly in respect of the ESG data tools it is developing for the asset-management industry.
