Filipino Carlo Silva recently bagged the Innovator of the Year award at the 2nd annual Payoneer Entrepreneurship Awards, a platform that celebrates entrepreneurial success around the globe and recognizes international businesses that display strategic thinking, innovative spirit, and social responsibility.
Mr. Silva won the award for his work at 2nd Office, an e-commerce outsourcing partner in growing online businesses. His Philippine-based company offers a variety of solutions primarily focused on supporting e-commerce front and back office operations, start-ups, tech companies, accounting firms, marketing agencies, as well as web development and design companies
Mr. Silva previously worked for a privately held company in the US as an e-commerce marketing director before eventually deciding to start a company that would offer outsourcing services to global clients.
His company, 2nd Office, currently provides services to some of the world’s biggest online markets — the US, UK and Australia. The success of 2nd Office also opened up online job opportunities for Filipinos who make up the company’s smart and talented workforce.
“Payoneer has helped us grow our business by enabling us to easily accept payments in US dollars via credit card and ACH (automated clearing house) transfers, giving our clients an easy solution to pay their bills. It has also saved us money by giving us competitive exchange rates and enabling us to pay our US supplies via credit card using our Payoneer account. If you’re looking for an all-in-one international payments solution, I highly recommend Payoneer for your business,” Mr. Silva shared.
