Linas Beliūnas's Summary

** Follow me for all things Financial Technology (FinTech, Blockchain, Cryptocurrency, Artificial Intelligence + Finance, etc.), Digital Innovation and Future Tech** Thank you for taking your time to view my profile. Unfortunately, I can no longer accept any new connection requests. Therefore, I'd really appreciate it if you could follow me. Let's keep in touch! --- I am a business developer, sales professional, and FinTech strategist who strives to make an impact and change the world. For the better. Although I have a bachelor's degree in Economics (with a major in Economics and Politics), I have been actively following and/or working in the Financial Services field since the very first year at university. Because of the early start of my career and given opportunities to try myself out in different roles and different players in the world of finance (I worked at Western Union, Danske Bank, Norne Securities), quite quickly and easily I found myself being the most passionate about Financial Technology and its enormous potential to reinvent conventional finance and change the world for the better. Now I am working in FinTech for more than 6 years, and every day I try to be a bit better and learn something new (and there are lots to learn!). Currently, I am a part of Flutterwave, where I am scaling the business and leading company's expansion into Europe. Flutterwave is a Mastercard, VISA, Greycroft, Y Combinator, and Worldpay FIS-backed payments technology company headquartered in San Francisco. We're simplifying payments for endless possibilities. Flutterwave is trusted by leading companies like Uber, Facebook, TransferWise, Netflix, Jumia, Azimo, Binance, among other 90,000+ businesses. We were recognized as the #2 Most Innovative Company in Africa in 2019, according to Fast Company. We're part of 50 Future Unicorns🦄 according to CB Insights & Fast Company. Also, CNBC has included us in the Upstart 100, which lists the brightest, most intriguing, young startups promising to become the great companies of tomorrow. I am super excited to play an important part in the Financial Technology revolution, and having the ability to move the financial disruption forward. I am highly interested in FinTech/TechFin, digital innovation (especially in banking, payments, and finance per see), and emerging technologies. P.S.
