The Tokyo Financial Award is hosted by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government (TMG) as part of its “Global Financial City: Tokyo” project, which aims to revitalize the city’s financial sector and reaffirm Tokyo’s position as the top global financial city in Asia. The award is designed to attract FinTech companies, both local Japanese and international organizations, to develop and provide innovative products and services that contribute to enhancing Tokyo residents’ daily lives and solve problems that Tokyo’s government may face.

With its expertise in the cybersecurity industry, CYBAVO looks forward to working with Japanese organizations to help them adopt the blockchain with confidence, knowing their funds will remain secure.
The 16 companies moving into the next phase of the award selection process will go through a final judging round in December, where their products and services will be ranked and 3 will be selected as award recipients in February of 2022.
