There also remains massive scope to build deeper and more targeted workflows on top of an increasingly commoditized payment transaction layer. These software, hardware, or in certain cases, operational solutions can generate tangible and immediate value to key stakeholders across commercial use cases – be it through analytics, access to financing, or streamlined business processes. Catalyst, as part of its broader mission to help small business ecosystems access the benefits of digital finance, will co-design, analyze &amp; validate, as well as enable the scaling of successful solutions. Towards this end, Catalyst offers innovative entrepreneurs technical and financial assistance in the form of performance-based financing, ground operational resources, research methodologies, broader ecosystem linkages, and domain expertise.
