This agreement is another major milestone in our pursuit of achieving deployments both rapidly and cost-effectively through our pre-configured European NFS Ascent platform.

We continue to build momentum on our SaaS offerings with a strong and growing pipeline of opportunities.”
“With the Ascent platform we provide pre-built standard interfaces, regulatory framework and many other important pre-set configurations that are available from the word ‘go,’” added Najeeb Ghauri, NETSOL Co-Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The end result: fast implementation, maximizing value and minimizing risk for our customers.”
