About Me
I am Sopheap Lao, a visionary in fintech and digital transformation. Over the past 25+ years, I have shaped the future of enterprise technology as a founder, SAP consultant, and blockchain innovator. I founded Mobexo, one of the world’s first QR-based payment systems, and XNotes Alliance, a blockchain company that gained recognition across Asia. I led Davensi as CEO during its formative stage. Today, I lead Darvvin, a continuation of my fintech consulting legacy through Arperton, blending finance, AI, and well-being into the next generation of digital solutions.
