Chicago is a global derivatives centre (CME + CBOT + CBOE), the Midwest's industrial manufacturing hub, and home to a deep FinTech + AI ecosystem (1871 incubator, Chicago Booth AI). NKKTech designs AI for Chicago companies with CFTC + SEC + Illinois BIPA awareness built in. Singapore-law MSA via NKKTech Global Pte. Ltd. CT overlap managed via a 4-hour daily live window (7–11 AM CT) + async-first culture.
Six engagement patterns that fit Chicago-based companies — LaSalle Street financials, Loop enterprises, 1871 scale-ups and Midwest manufacturers. Built for CFTC/SEC regulatory awareness, Illinois BIPA-strict patterns, and industrial-grade reliability.
CFTC (Commodity Futures Trading Commission) + SEC + FINRA + Illinois BIPA (Biometric Information Privacy Act, strictest in the US) compliance built into engagement defaults for Chicago FinTech + AdTech + HR-tech. Data classification matrix, biometric-data assessment, named Privacy Officer contact, audit-ready logging.
Chicago is a global derivatives centre. We design AI features for derivatives traders, clearing firms and commodity firms: market-data normalization, trade-surveillance AI, anomaly detection for trading anomalies, multilingual news-monitoring agents, regulatory reporting automation (CFTC + EMIR + MiFIR). Microsecond-aware-when-needed patterns.
Midwest industrial heartland — automotive Tier-1 suppliers, heavy machinery, aerospace.

ISA-95 + IEC 62443-aware patterns for OT/IT convergence.
Vietnam GMT+7, Chicago CST/CDT (-6/-5). Our coverage: 8 PM–midnight Vietnam = 7–11 AM Chicago (CT) as core overlap (4 hours live daily, your morning, our evening) — standups, demos, decisions live. Senior engineers on rotation for critical escalations. Async-first documentation discipline keeps engineering moving overnight in both directions.
Hanoi → Chicago requires one connection (~21-24h total via Tokyo, Doha, or Singapore). Visits by Tony or senior engineers at kickoff and critical milestones, and 2-4 week embeds in the Loop or River North, can be arranged when an engagement needs them (travel costs agreed in the proposal).
