Celebrating Digital Innovations: VEON's Awards Triumph
VEON Earns Recognition at GSMA M360 Asia-Pacific
VEON Ltd. is thrilled to share its proud moment as its subsidiaries, Mobilink Microfinance Bank and Banglalink, brought home prestigious awards at the GSMA M360 event, a key gathering spotlighting the mobile industry's role in digital transformation across the Asia Pacific region.
Celebrating Success in Digital Inclusion
The highly regarded "Digital Nations Award" highlights the significant impact of mobile technologies in enhancing digital access and inclusion. This year, submissions for the award came from eleven diverse nations, including Bangladesh, Cambodia, and India.
Mobilink Bank's Groundbreaking Campaign
Mobilink Microfinance Bank was honored with the "Digital Nations Video Creativity Award" for its thought-provoking campaign, "Invisible Heirs." This campaign addresses a pressing societal issue faced by women in Pakistan and beyond, where they often do not receive their entitled inheritance following the death of a spouse or parent. The bank created an innovative inheritance calculator to empower women to understand and claim their rightful inheritance, showcasing a firm commitment to gender equality.
Leadership in Women’s Financial Services
In further recognition, Quratulain Chaudhary, the Head of Women’s Financial Services and Sustainability at Mobilink Bank, was awarded the "Women Digital Leadership Award". Her leadership and vision have established crucial pathways for financial empowerment among women, making finances accessible and equitable.
Banglalink's Innovation in Healthcare
Similarly, Banglalink demonstrated excellence by receiving the "Excellence in Digital Inclusion Video Award" for its remarkable MyBL Super App. This cutting-edge app includes healthcare features aimed at enhancing access to medical services for underserved populations in rural Bangladesh. The app currently serves 7.8 million monthly active users and has become a vital tool in improving healthcare accessibility.
Transforming Lives Through Technology
The MyBL Super App is a testament to Banglalink's and VEON's dedication to leveraging technology to drive positive social outcomes. The app not only simplifies access to healthcare but represents a broader commitment to digital inclusion and improving the quality of life for people in remote areas.
VEON's Ongoing Commitment to Inclusion
Kaan Terzioglu, CEO of VEON Group, expressed gratitude to the teams at Mobilink Bank and Banglalink. He emphasized the mobile industry's pivotal role in addressing inequalities through digital services, highlighting how such initiatives can profoundly impact communities.
These recent accolades are just part of the growing recognition for both firms. Mobilink Microfinance Bank has already been celebrated with the 2023 Pakistan Banking Award for Best Bank for Inclusion and other esteem. Banglalink was notably awarded for its sustainability initiatives during disaster responses, such as integrating an Early Warning System into the MyBL Super App during significant events.
