connect; and be inspired by our mission to revolutionize commerce globally. The afternoon of programming saw developers, system integrators, channel partners and other technology professionals learning about PayPal’s newest products, participating in interactive coding workshops, and building connections with their peers and the PayPal team.</p> <p>Opening the event, <strong>Shaun Khalfan, Senior Vice President and Chief Information Security Officer</strong>, noted that Singapore is among the first places in the world PayPal was organizing an event of this scale – a nod to the critical role Singapore’s developer community plays in operationalizing PayPal’s technology, to drive change at scale with customers around the world.
