#39, Simon Brown, "Transforming Kids' Relationship with Money”

In this episode of the WFLS podcast we chat with Simon Brown. Simon Brown is co-CEO at Banqer, the financial education platform which has been used by over 300,000 Australasian school students. His role leverages his passion for finance, technology, and education to support teachers in enhancing their students' financial literacy and overall wellbeing, making a positive impact on the world. We chat about how and why Banqer was founded to help kids become better with money. Simon is no stranger to founding startups with CrashCram being his first and Banqer his second with co-founder Kendall Flutey. Banqer is on a mission to prepare the next generation for their financial future. They believe that everyone should have access to a quality, engaging, effective financial education that sets them up for financial success - whatever that means to them.They started with a vision to teach one student about money (their co-founders' little brother), and since then they’ve helped financially educate over 300,000 students. The impact they’ve had through their innovative approach to teaching critical life skills has been celebrated externally, but most importantly it’s what motivates them each day.
