🛡️ Growth Capital Podcast — Episode 61 🛡️
What happens when a real-world cybersecurity incident becomes the spark for a category-defining startup?

Mario shares how shared Wi-Fi passwords expose property owners and small businesses to serious risk—and why connectivity should be treated like identity-based infrastructure, not a static utility. Drawing parallels to Visa and Mastercard, he explains how CleverFi enables personalized, revocable network access anywhere in the world—without hardware or apps.
