Fintech Chatter: Conversations with Fintech Leaders

It has been a MASSIVE week for the Aussie Fintech Industry. Intersekt 22 was bigger and better than ever.
 
Two days of conversations, insights, friendships being formed and connections being made. Along with lots of reunions, laughs, hugs and parties!

Out of the hundreds of conversations, I managed to record a few to share with you.

I speak to a few Fintech legends as well as founders from the next wave of fintech startups.

And I also chat with some of the unsung heroes behind the scenes.

Here’s a chat with Jennifer Harrison, Partner at Reputation Edge. Jennifer is one of the characters behind the scenes of the Australian Fintech community. She’s been instrumental in supporting the industry through her PR and media work.

Welcome to Fintech Chatter Bitesize. I’m your host Dexter Cousins  - Since launching the podcast in 2019 I’ve interviewed over 200 Fintech leaders.

The coolest thing for me is the feedback I get every day from people who have learned something from the show.

So every week I listen through the archives for pearls of wisdom from past guests that I can trim down and provide to you in an east-to-digest, bitesize piece!

Today’s bitesize is with Matt Baxby, taken from a chat in June 2021, Matt had just completed 12 months as the interim global CEO for Revolut Banking business.

Based in Australia, Matt oversaw the global expansion of Revolut into India, SE Asia, Australia and America creating the playbook for their land and expand strategy.
