Last month in Las Vegas, we joined forces with Fintech Is Femme with Nicole Casperson to raise a glass to inclusion, innovation, and purpose at A Toast to Women in Fintech 🥂

During the live taping of Humans of Fintech, our very own Wysh team, Founder and CEO, Alexander Matjanec, Chief Creative Marketing Officer, Edwin Endlich, and Business Development and Event Manager, Kseniya Zaslavskaya shared powerful stories that remind us why we do what we do because inclusion isn’t charity, it’s strategy.

💬 Alexander Matjanec’s mission to rethink life insurance started with making protection accessible for everyone.
💬 Edwin Endlich turned loss into purpose through The National Alliance for Financial Literacy and Inclusion (NAFLI), championing financial literacy as a right.
💬 Kseniya Zaslavskaya’s experience translating complex systems for her family fuels her drive to make finance more human.

Together, Wysh and The National Alliance for Financial Literacy and Inclusion (NAFLI) are proving that fintech for good isn’t a niche it’s the future. Tune in for the full live recording on one of these three channels!

According to host Brennan Pothetes , Alexander Matjanec Matjanec is “like a boomer fintech guy” the go-to for twin-dad advice, life insurance questions, and 15 years of business ownership clarity.

In this episode, our CEO & Founder, Alexander Matjanec shares what it really takes to build something sustainable. He talks about why life insurance is “the most human business in finance,” how AI helps with “the large-numbers work,” and why starting an insurance company took “three and a half years before we could even sell a policy.”

And on the founder mindset?

“Being an entrepreneur is the long-term game… money makes you think you’re moving faster, but you also burn it faster.”

A grounded, honest look at building with patience, purpose, and curiosity.

Worth a listen.
