Title: What I've learnt bootstrapping a FinTech company
Abstract: Huge funding rounds and inflated IPOs may make the news, but it isn't the only way to get a business off the ground. In this talk I'll tell you my story on bootstrapping a FinTech startup up to 20 employees (so far!), from my role as co-founder and CEO. I'll speak about some the challenges of scaling technology, people and processes as the business grows organically underneath you. I will give you the inside take on some of the things that we've found work and don’t work at FundApps. This talk will be relevant to anyone who's considering starting, or joining a startup.
