Mastercard recently awarded strategic investment funding to Trust Stamp, a company that graduated from its 2018 start-path accelerator program. Trust Stamp provides authentication services powered by artificial intelligence to provide greater privacy and security for users particularly in areas with low connectivity. The Trust Stamp technology has many potential uses: humanitarian and development services, banking, FinTech, KYC / AML compliance, real estate, and law enforcement. The company is headquartered in Georgia Tech’s incubator – the Advanced Technology Development Center (ATDC).
