On today’s episode I am joined by Marcos Fernandez, Managing Partner of Fiat Ventures.
Fiat Ventures is an emerging VC focused on supporting and growing the next generation of market leading early-stage companies in the fintech space.
It’s a fascinating time in fintech, one one hand, you have a lot of bad news with layoffs happening almost daily, but on the other you also have these incredible stories of growth and excitement.
Marcos and I delved into where fintech sits today, how early stage founders should think about capital and when to raise, the precarious position crypto is in, the lack of diversity within the ecosystem, operator versus investor, the Las Vegas Raiders, and much more.
A couple of short PSAs:
