“As a former startup founder in payments, I used to start my day by reading FinTech News. Out of personal interest I was keeping an eye on the market and looking for new opportunities. Since following the news was a time-consuming task, I decided to start sharing my daily research on LinkedIn and not long after started a personal newsletter. By curating the news I was doing the heavy lifting and helping others to stay up-to-date. A few years later my morning ritual has got out of hand...I am proud to see, that what started as a tagline on LinkedIn, has evolved into the greatest FinTech community I could think of”
