In Episode #26, we explore building the business bank of the future. We’re joined by Everett Cook, Co-Founder and CEO of Rho. We cover how Rho Business Banking empowers teams to work better with money, what Rho offers that other banks do not, and observations and predictions on the evolving fintech space.

“In a lot of ways, people are forgetting the lessons of  technology just in general—big companies move slowly, and there's an innovator's dilemma. Outside perspective is generally the fastest way to innovate, and I think it's really exciting.” — Everett Cook
