About this session
What does it take to transform from 0 to 1 start-up versus 1 to 100 scale-up? This fireside chat explores the leadership challenges of scaling a fintech—from navigating uncertainty and competitive pressures to evolving the product, culture and governance on the path to profitability & beyond. We’ll examine the complexities of international expansion while preserving a company's distinctive identity, and the human side of leadership: how different leadership styles can succeed, and how professional CEOs can build on a founder’s vision while charting their own course.
