Alright, folks—let’s ditch the doom and gloom.
In this episode, recorded live from Money 2020 with the CEO of Marqeta, Simon Khalaf, we’re breaking down why there’s actually plenty to be optimistic about in the world of fintech as we head into 2025.

We dive deep into why regulatory clarity, infrastructure upgrades, and smart AI adoption are setting the stage for the next wave of fintech innovation.
Plus, Simon shares why now is the perfect time to align incentives and leverage tech for sustainable growth.
