Fintech Family Hour Behind The Scenes of Fintech's Family Reunion: Micky Tesfaye, Money20/20
Money 20/20 roll call!
It’s dawned on me that while I come to you as a humble podcast host, you’re all constantly hearing me talk about this Money20/20 thing…And based on what I see in the comments, most people are wondering:
What the hell is even a content director??
So, on this episode, not only do I deep dive into what life is like in this role, but I also had a chance to get the Euro perspective from our guest, Micky Tesfaye, the Content Lead for Europe!
We give the inside scoop of what we deal with, how we manage stress, judging the success of a show, and even go in on the toll this kind of job can take on a human. Enjoy!
We are also SO excited to welcome our new sponsor of Fintech Family Hour: Skipify.com
Skipify’s Connected Wallet is a next-gen digital wallet that connects Merchants, Shoppers, and Financial Institutions into the moment of purchase for the very first time.
