Sahil Pankhaniya and Christian Trummer are two names that you should remember beyond doubt, if you haven't done it already, because of some incredible things that these guys are working on. They're both seniors at the George Washington University, and this is precisely where they first started thinking about Credit Union Initiative. When Sahil first started his studies at the George Washington University, he discovered that his classmates were running credit unions. He also found out that they were helping universities in one essential task – to combat a problem that students have a low financial literacy level. Because of that fact, they have a tough time during the college days and after they graduate to build a strong financial foundation. In 2021, Sahil and Christian hope to present a very lightweight suite of products, based on student needs. One thing will bring a fresh and young approach to this – the use of technology and finding as many niche service providers as possible to put them together for their tech system. Also, they're thinking about their future employees and how they will be able to interact with the system and learn fast. In this episode of the Digital Banking Podcast, Sahil and Christian are going to explain to us how this process started. From just a seed in their minds to an idea they could talk about out loud until this moment where they're almost launching it into the market. They're also going to give us a young generation’s perspective on finances and how the next money revolution should look.
