Yasmin Moaven is the CMO of Pipe, a New York based FinTech company that allows companies to transform recurring revenue into up-front capital for growth without dilution or restrictive debt.

Yas’s journey to becoming CMO of Pipe is a relevant one for those looking to get into tech in a non-technical way, as she covers the steps in her career that allowed her to achieve her position at a young age. Our conversation covers Yas’s career, Pipe’s business model, and the importance of diversity/representation in C-level positions.
