GIFTO Weekly Updates — 22 January 2018
A Message from Andy Tian, CEO and co-founder of UpliveWelcome to our third weekly update. As you know, we have started our GIFTO Angel program, calling for volunteers around the world to help us grow a healthy community. Please ping one of our admin’s for more information if you haven’t seen our Angel application form.
For this week, I’d like to give everyone a bit of history on our company behind the GIFTO project, Asia Innovations Group (AIG). As always, the future of a project is defined by the background and capability of the team behind it, and we are no exception.
Our history of innovationWe are very much unlike most of the project teams that are currently ongoing. AIG was started back at the end of 2013, in order to capitalize on the mobile innovations that we saw rising in Asian countries such as China, Korea, and Japan. Due to our team’s background in the biggest Eastern (Tencent) and Western companies (Google, Zynga), we saw a unique opportunity to build mobile social products that would be cross cultural and cross national.
