**Diginex Limited Announces Non-Binding MOU to Acquire Edge AI Innovator Kindred OS**
*LONDON, Nov. 06, 2025* — Diginex Limited (“Diginex” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: DGNX), a recognized provider of Sustainability RegTech, today announced the execution of a non-binding memorandum of understanding (the “MOU”) to acquire Kindred OS (“Kindred”), an innovator in Edge Artificial Intelligence (Edge AI). Kindred’s technology enables AI models to run locally, securely, and independently of the cloud.
While much of the AI industry is racing toward large, cloud-based AI models, Diginex aims to chart a different path—one centered on privacy, energy efficiency, and regulatory trust. Edge AI empowers organizations to perform complex data analysis within their own infrastructure, without transferring sensitive information externally.
This privacy-first architecture is particularly relevant for regulated sectors such as financial services, healthcare, and the public sector, where data sovereignty, transparency, and auditability are critical.
> “Compliance and reporting are evolving from static checklists into living and evolving intelligent systems,” stated Miles Pelham, Founder and Executive Chairman of Diginex. “Edge AI allows us to place trusted intelligence within an organization’s own secure IT ecosystem, which is perfectly aligned with Diginex’s mission to make compliance transparent, efficient, and responsible.”
By integrating Kindred’s Edge AI framework into its platform, Diginex aims to enable clients to automate compliance and generate AI-driven insights directly within secure environments, minimizing data risk, cost, and latency.
> “Edge AI bridges the gap between innovation and regulatory integrity,” said Lorenzo Romano, Head of M&A and Strategic Development at Diginex. “By combining Diginex’s regulatory expertise with Kindred’s local AI architecture, we aim to set a new benchmark for how AI will enhance both performance and compliance in the years ahead.”

### A Strategic Milestone in Diginex’s Growth Journey
The proposed acquisition of Kindred underscores Diginex’s vision to become the global platform for Regulatory Technology powered by responsible AI. This platform will help organizations capture, verify, and act on any data with confidence.
Kindred’s “H1 Edge AI platform,” designed for predictive learning, healthcare, and industrial automation, will be integrated into Diginex’s product suite to create an intelligent, privacy-preserving operating layer across Diginex’s compliance and ESG solutions.
Once integrated, the Diginex platform will empower organizations to:
– Run AI models locally to analyze ESG, risk, and operational data without exposing sensitive information to external third-party platforms or data centers.
– Unlock real-time compliance intelligence that continually evolves with changing data privacy regulations.
– Advance sustainability goals by reducing dependence on energy-intensive cloud infrastructures.

### Why This Matters
The proposed acquisition will strengthen Diginex’s innovation capacity and broaden its access to new markets and customer segments. By incorporating Kindred’s H1 Edge AI technology, Diginex aims to enhance its ability to scale responsibly and deliver long-term value to clients and shareholders, while strengthening trust and transparency with regulators.
The global Edge AI market was estimated at USD 20.78 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 66.47 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 21.7% from 2025 to 2030. Diginex’s strategic positioning aligns with increasing demand in regulated industries for privacy-first, AI-enabled compliance and ESG solutions.
The transaction contemplated by the MOU reflects Diginex’s continued commitment to advancing responsible innovation and long-term value creation.
