Through MSC’s support, governments can lay the foundation for inclusive, future-ready digital economies that facilitate financial inclusion, healthcare access, social protection, and economic participation. Our comprehensive, end-to-end support to clients extends from strategic planning and architectural design to implementation.

MSC collaborates with governments and institutions to design, develop, and scale inclusive technologies, such as digital public infrastructure (DPI), which empower citizens and strengthen public service delivery. Our specialization lies in foundational systems, which include digital identity, payment networks, and data exchange platforms. We ensure these systems are secure, interoperable, and scalable to support inclusive economies.

Beyond technological implementation, MSC integrates robust governance frameworks, privacy safeguards, and cultural sensitivity into all layers of system design. This approach ensures that the infrastructure remains resilient, trusted, and attuned to the unique needs of underserved and marginalized populations. We combine innovation with localized governance and privacy protocols to create contextually responsive solutions.

Our proven record of delivering digital government-to-people (G2P) services has reached more than 875 million individuals across Asia and Africa and allowed us to play a pivotal role in transformative ecosystems. Our efforts have contributed to India’s Aadhaar initiative and built national payment platforms across African nations.
