A New Year Message From Our CEO

4 min readDec 31, 2017

What a year 2017 has been. Global expansion for LALA World with daily nerve racking excitement in the crypto world. Exciting times we live in.

We at LALA have always believed that Blockchain is for the greater good of humanity. 2017 has been a great journey for this LALA bunch of passionate team players embarked, thanks to continuous support from people like yourselves and over 50 global partnerships spanning across four continents now.

2017 has been both an exciting and challenging year for LALA. From zilch to presence in Malaysia, India, UAE, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Bangladesh and now expanding across many other regions, LALA team faced significant challenges. Resources were stretched to the limits, meeting the ever changing needs of Fintech sector, Blockchain, ICO demands while abiding by the compliance standards and enhancing the user experience we provide to you. There is a huge influx of investors, partners, real users, community members who are all willing to support this noble cause.

As an end of the year note, I wanted to reflect on what we have achieved so far, where to go from here while never losing our focus of making human lives better — via Blockchain, peer to peer, decentralised — our eventual goal. Blockchain allows us to do that, own what belongs to us and financially include us in a society that does not even recognise the other 2 billion that exist. LALA is that Grandeur Plan. With each passing day it motivates us to achieve the unthinkable with a social purpose. There is no turning back because lives depend on this. Our partners have trusted us to deliver this and we are truly blessed to have achieved feats that we couldn’t have a year ago.

Moving forward, I would like to share with you some exciting plans we have in store for you in 2018 that run beyond the ICO. We will be expanding across geographies and intend to be in over 10 countries by end of 2018.

Our product focus for 2018 will be on digital ID’s — LALA ID, Digital Scores — LALA Score, Cross border remittance — LALA Transfer and Peer to Peer as well as direct micro lending — LALA Lends

We will continue to grow our partners as we strongly believe we cannot do this alone. Partnerships will become our strength as we leverage on existing infrastructures. More local level community engagement and helping out the needy will become our priority.

Customer service and enhanced security of our clients will take another leap as we have some very exciting announcements ahead. Additionally, an effort to grow our operations in some developed nations will also increase since most families send their loved ones to live, work and study there.

As 2018 steps in, we want to stay focused, yet simple. While LALA is focused on financial inclusion, education, health and employment are intertwined into our mission. LALA token plays a crucial part in this as we expand globally making LALA the currency of choice. We need your continued support.

I hope you find this journey of interest and not only participate in our ICO but also send your contacts, and networks our way who can help us achieve this.

Please do not hesitate to contact me. Looking forward to your feedback and to have you on board.
