Session Description

In a world dominated by legacy banks and conservative practices, Ali Niknam set out to revolutionize the financial industry with bunq—a self-funded, user-first challenger bank. This fireside chat dives into the bold decisions and relentless innovation that powered bunq's journey to becoming one of Europe's leading neobanks. Ali will share his thoughts on why self-funding was critical to staying true to his vision, how bunq integrates sustainability into its mission, and what it takes to navigate and disrupt one of the most heavily regulated sectors. Join us as we uncover lessons for founders seeking to make a meaningful impact, no matter the obstacles.
