George

Office Dog & Good Boy

George is a valued member of the Blue Train team. He is a cute and mischievous Cocker Spaniel who will give you a warm welcome if you visit our office. He still has a limited knowledge of fintech and payments, but can often be found hanging out with Blue Train’s CEO and COO. He is rather partial to a walk and ball throwing.
