Insights from Money20/20 Bangkok and Dubai FinTech Summit 2024

This is the start of season number two!We had a small break a few weeks and we are ready to go with more exciting guests and FinTechs

One of the reasons why we had a short break in between season one and season two is because I've been attending conferences. I've been to Money 20/20 Bangkok, and then I went to Dubai FinTech summit, of course in Dubai.

In this episode I cover the key insights that I got, and what are the things that we need to be aware of?

About the Podcast

Purpose Driven FinTech (& AI FinTech Innovations)
Building FinTech Products & AI in FinTech with Impact
Welcome to Purpose Driven FinTech!

I'm your host, Monica Millares - Product Leader and fellow FinTecher.

These days, with the rising cost of living, financial stress among customers, loss of trust in banks, speculation of crypto, and uncertainty, we're facing unprecedented challenges. But there is hope. We as FinTechers have the power to make a positive impact.

Our products, the how we do product, and our people can make a difference on customers’ financial lives - and as a result, in the quality of their lives.

However, more than ever Founders, CEOs, Leadership teams and all FinTechers have a ton of pressure to build solutions that actually solve customer problems, that people want, that are differentiated And profitable

Yes that's you and me too!

That's why I've created this podcast!

I speak with Founders, Product Leaders, VCs, and industry experts to uncover their stories, challenges, and lessons learnt in building products with impact.

You'll get to hear real-life conversations, and you’ll walk away with practical questions, frameworks and insights that you can apply to your own FinTech products. So, are you ready to make a bigger difference in FinTech?

Let's come together and discover how Purpose, Product, and People can help us create a future of better financial wellbeing while building sustainable and profitable FinTechs.

Follow me on LinkedIn, TikTok, and  YouTube to stay connected and be part of the conversation.

Cheers to making better FinTech and making FinTech better!

Love, Moni
