Zwipe appoints new Executive Vice President Strategy & Channels
OSLO, NORWAY- 02 June 2020 - Zwipe AS announces that Bishwajit Choudhary has
accepted the position of Executive Vice President Strategy & Channels at Zwipe,
commencing 2 June 2020. He will lead Zwipe's engagement efforts towards banks,
global and domestic card schemes, selected retailers and other important
payments ecosystem stakeholders.
Based in Oslo, Mr. Choudhary brings two decades of experience from Nets where he
led many new business initiatives within Digital-ID, electronic signatures and
mobile authentication for international clients. As the Group SVP (Strategy) he
led Nets' market intelligence and strategy execution and played a key role in
many commercial initiatives, notably open-banking data analytics, customer
advisory, strategic alliances and fintech partnerships. Prior to joining Zwipe,
he was Chief Commercial Officer at UserTribe, a global leader in delivering deep
customer insights in 100+ countries based on live experience data.
"With increasing activity in payment cards and wearables in general, and
biometrics in particular, and with Zwipe poised to take a technology and cost
leadership position in this high potential market, timing is right for Zwipe to
complement our growing engagements with our direct customers, the smart card
manufacturers, by embarking on a "pull strategy". This means that we will step
up our engagements with banks and neo-banks, as well as new players in card
issuance, such as retailers and tech companies. With deep insights in the
payments industry, Bishwajit will add a valuable breadth in our payments
expertise and lead our strategy and channel development," said André Løvestam,
CEO of Zwipe.
