Cambodia: OCIC, Canadia Bank and Falcon Tech collaborate to accelerate adoption of Apple technologies and AI

OCIC Group and Canadia Bank have signed a partnership with Falcon Tech, official distributor of Apple products in Cambodia and member of La French Tech Phnom Penh, to collaborate on EdTech initiatives, customer-oriented financial solutions and the integration of the Apple tech ecosystem within Canadia Group’s activities.

The agreement was signed by Jean-Michel Ngo, CEO of Falcon Tech, Dominic Mario Notario, CEO of Canadia Bank, and Thierry Tea, Vice President of OCIC

The partnership will support digital learning initiatives and explore the integration of Apple technologies within OCIC’s schools, including the Canadian International School of Phnom Penh, École Française Internationale, Norea International School, CamTech University, as well as the future Université Francophone d’Asie (UFA).

The collaboration also explores the development of a TechLab within Connexion, offering entrepreneurs, start-ups and businesses access to digital tools provided by Apple, collaborative workspaces and environments dedicated to innovation.

Furthermore, the parties will explore opportunities to enhance customer engagement, expand access to financing solutions for Apple products and services, and support wider adoption of digital technologies in Cambodia.

“We are excited to explore new ways to support access to digital services in partnership with OCIC Group’s extensive ecosystem. Cambodia’s growing preference for premium technology demonstrates a country that clearly knows which future it wants to build: a future defined by quality, connectivity and ambition,” said Jean-Michel Ngo, CEO of Falcon Tech.

“This partnership marks a positive step as we continue to explore opportunities offered by technology, particularly in the fields of education and innovation,” said Thierry Tea, Vice President of OCIC. “There is strong potential to develop initiatives that can better support students, entrepreneurs and businesses in Cambodia.”

The collaboration could also extend across the entire Canadia Group ecosystem, with potential initiatives involving Techo International Airport, Canadia Investment Holding companies such as Canadia Bank and Cambodia Post Bank, as well as Canadia Impact Fund Co., Ltd., around a common goal: supporting digital innovation in Cambodia.

“This strategic partnership reflects our commitment to creating real added value for our customers. With Falcon Tech, we aim to develop collaborations that enhance customer engagement and brand loyalty through special offers, bundled solutions and attractive financing options,” added Dominic Mario Notario, CEO of Canadia Bank.

Through this collaboration, OCIC Group, Canadia Bank and Falcon Tech aim to contribute to the development of Cambodia’s digital ecosystem through initiatives that foster better access to technology, financial solutions centered on customer needs, and enhanced digital engagement in the education, business and innovation sectors.
