Jean-Luc Robert, the Chairman and CEO of Kyriba, said: “Kyriba is proud to partner with Chairwoman Sheikha Dheya bint Ebrahim Al Khalifa, MVC and its parent company, AVC Global and to be part of their fintech vision of the future. Reducing payment times from several months to a few days across supply chains for the most critical items such as pharmaceuticals is a game changer, especially for small and medium enterprises. With this partnership, Kyriba extends its presence in the Middle East, and expands our solution offering in the Kingdom of Bahrain.”   

 Kyriba's pioneering Active Liquidity Network, a cloud-based liquidity data and connectivity hub, connects internal applications with vital external liquidity sources such as banks, suppliers and trading platforms.

Leo A. Giacometto, MVC’s Co-Founder and President, said, “We are very pleased to see the fruit of the partnership of our two companies be planted here in Bahrain. MVC’s success will not only serve the healthcare industry well in Bahrain but it will blossom all across the middle east and it will help to accelerate Bahrain’s position as the world leader in fintech.”
