"I think there is a misconception that people need to come from banking, finance, or technology to work in FinTech. I would like to see more apprenticeships and opportunities for new people to come in."

On today's episode of #WomenOfFinTech, Nadia is joined by Diana Ranchal, Lead Solutions Engineer at Marqeta. 

Diana shares her journey into FinTech from a modern languages background and highlights the significance of unique entry points into the industry. The conversation touches on the importance of workplace inclusion and diversity, and Diana stresses the importance of fostering a positive culture within organizations, where knowledge sharing and continual learning are encouraged. 

Sharing her views on nurturing the next generation of FinTech, Diana advocates for more apprenticeship programs and diverse hiring practices to open up opportunities for underrepresented groups.

Thank you, Diana, for your inspiring insights!
