“I am really excited to join Veriff, especially because I see a huge growth potential for the whole identity verification industry as the global digitalisation has accelerated over the last year. So far I’ve experienced the ID verification business from a client’s perspective, and now I’ll get to see the other side,” said Amish Mody. “Any fast growing and successful company needs a great team – the enthusiasm, professionalism and friendliness of Veriff’s people made the decision to join the journey an easy one for me,” he added.
