In episode 108 of Fintech Chatter Podcast, Dexter Cousins chats with Sarah Wallis, the co-founder and COO of Skript.

Skript was established to create simple and accessible solutions that connect businesses to the world of Open Banking. Transforming data into information, Skript provides companies with the right data and insights to build meaningful relationships with their customers.

In the last two years, we've begun to see alternative approaches to building successful Fintech businesses. Raising capital is not mentioned once in this interview!

It was rare to see a Fintech based outside of Sydney or Melbourne in Australia. But we are now seeing Fintech like Scalapay in Wollongong and Zepto in Byron Bay find success in regional Australia.

Skript has both Sydney and Newcastle offices allowing them to be close to customer headquarters while being a part of the growing Newcastle tech community.

Sarah has been a part of the Newcastle tech scene for over 20 years and has a passion for developing new talent.

She shares her insights on the benefits of launching a Fintech startup in regional Australia. And how to get the best from emerging talent by partnering with Universities and the tech community.
