Digital Signing & Up-and-Coming Trends for Startups
From May 23–24, the Kdan team attended the 2019 Echelon Asia Summit at Singapore EXPO to show off our new e-signature tool. Echelon is a technology event held yearly by E27, which focuses on showcasing up-and-coming technology in the Asia-Pacific region, specifically for startups. As an exhibitor, Kdan got to build relationships with incubators and coworking space providers, make connections with local startups, and promote our new e-sign app, DottedSign .
DottedSign allows the user to easily import documents and request signatures from specific people, thus eliminating the need for paper contracts and optimizing workflow. To introduce this new app, our team gave away free trials at Echelon. This event allows startups to form collaborations and strategic relationships with other companies. Over 250 exhibitors and 15,000 were in attendance-including people from a wide range of industries such as law, automation robots, e-commerce, web design, and online payment.
Conference attendees had some excellent feedback for our team. While the comments we received were overwhelmingly positive, we fielded many questions regarding DottedSign. Here is an overview of the most frequently asked questions we received at Echelon that you might be thinking as well:

Question: What’s the difference between adding signature on PDFs through PDF Reader and DottedSign? DottedSign is a complete e-signature service that helps manage your signing process. You can assign different people to sign a particular field as well as track their status with a visual progress bar.

Question: Is it legal to sign electronically in my country? Laws vary by country, but most of them accept e-signatures as long as they meet the following criteria: signer authentication; intent and consent; and final proof. DottedSign meets each of these requirements.
DottedSign meets these standards by using account verification and a complete audit trail for every signer to download after the document is completed.
