This week we interviewed African entrepreneur Kaivan Sattar. Kaivan started the digital bank, Asaak, which lends to people in Uganda who previously could not access credit. They have grown dramatically over the past year and are now doing over $1 million US in revenue per year. 

We dived deep into the development prospects of Africa, Kaivan's founding story and the vision he has for Asaak. 

Before founding Asaak, Kaivan worked at the Federal Reserve Bank of NY, Grameen Bank and studied at Colombia and NY University. 

For transparency, both of us made an angel investment into Asaak earlier this year.
