By the numbers: Palida Artispong of Krungsri Finnovate noted that Amity serves more than 100 business partners across retail, food and beverage, fashion, and hospitality, plus tens of thousands of SMEs across Asia Pacific and Europe. The March round funds regional and European expansion, a Singapore AI research centre, and possible acquisitions.
