Customer Reviews
Jamie Murray
Very insightful, well worth a listen if you play in the FinTech, InsurTech space, relevant to all players in the value chain.
Push the speakers harder please. I need to learn something new in an hour-long podcast
The podcast is good at summarizing the news and bringing speakers from a range of businesses. The interviewers need to get a lot less breathless and happy for the founders when they close a raise, and push the journalism beyond the hype. What specifically is different about your business than the incumbents, and precisely how is that possible to monetize? Please don’t just let them stop at “we are listening to our customers” or “we are agile”. It’s generic.
Insightful topical discussions
Superb collection, I’m in banking and love the views on future tech and the changing financial landscape. Thank You!
