Latin America continues to be, in my opinion, the most dynamic and interesting region in the world when it comes to fintech innovation. And there are now significant billion dollar deals getting done as some of the biggest financial institutions on the planet are looking to make their mark in the region.

My next guest on the Fintech One-on-One podcast is Daniela Binatti, she is the Co-Founder and CTO of Pismo. Pismo has created modern financial infrastructure to help banks move away from their legacy technology. Visa saw the potential of Pismo and announced last year that it was acquiring the company for $1 billion in cash. That deal was consummated in January of this year.

In this podcast you will learn:

• The family affair that was the founding story of Pismo.
• The opportunity they saw in the Brazilian market.
• How they were able to start getting traction.
• Pismo's core offerings today.
• How they were able to sign the largest bank in Brazil very early on.
• What these large banks are using Pismo for.
• Some of the other big names that are using Pismo today.
• How Daniela views what is happening in the US and other developed markets.
• The impact that Pix has had on their business.
• Her personal take on what Pix has meant for Brazil.
• How they decided to take on international markets.
• How the acquisition conversation with Visa began.
• What they can do with Visa now that they couldn't do alone.
• What this acquisition means for Latin American fintech.
• What new innovations are they thinking about for the future.
