In this episode I sit down with Sahil Phadnis, founder of Affiniti, a US based fintech startup that offers an all-in-one financial operating system tailored specifically for SMBs in backbone industries—those overlooked by other fintech solutions.
Affiniti just raised a $60 million funding round, in order to expand its reach in the US and offer tailor made fintech solutions like credit card to the backbones of the US industrial economy. The company is targeting SMEs in rural areas like Nebraska or Arkansas in order to offer financial services to segments not usually covered by new or even traditional banking.
With him, we will speak about the next wave of fintech investments in 2025, on the targets for Affiniti in the long run, but also about hiring in the fintech space and the upcoming challenges in this market.
