SINGAPORE, Dec. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The annual ASEAN Innovation Business Platform (AIBP) Enterprise Innovation Awards received 113 submissions from public and private organisations throughout Southeast Asia, out of which 56 projects were selected as finalists. Since 2017, the awards have aimed to recognise Southeast Asian-based organisations that have embarked on projects to digitally transform their businesses through the adoption of innovative technology.
Notably, more than 40% of submissions involved some aspect of artificial intelligence (AI) or machine learning (ML). Many organisations in Southeast Asia, particularly consumer-facing businesses, are exploring the use of AI/ML. The recent rise of generative AI has opened up a range of questions about the utility of this technology.
TymeX and KBTG Vietnam emerged as the winners from Vietnam for the Data and AI category and the Open category, respectively.
TymeX's award-winning project incorporates AI across Tyme's operations to enhance productivity, security, and efficiency. Recent AI initiatives include an internal AI Chatbot, designed to assist employees in content creation, troubleshooting, and information retrieval, streamlining workflows and improving collaboration. Additionally, TymeX deploys AI-driven threat detection to bolster cybersecurity, text-to-speech for training, and personalised learning tools, which collectively contribute to increased employee satisfaction and effectiveness. These advancements highlight Tyme's commitment to delivering secure and efficient digital banking solutions tailored to emerging markets, ensuring a scalable model that maintains a high standard of customer service and operational excellence.
