In today's episode, we bring you an interview with Nicky Goulimis, co-founder and COO at Nova Credit. Joining Sam Maule remotely, the pair kick things off with the company's origin story and how Nova Credit came to be. With no previous fintech experience, we hear about how Nicky and her co-founders were fueled by their credit troubles as international students in the US to create a solution for the underbanked from across the globe. Now working to push systemic change across the industry, Sam and Nicky also touch on Nova Credit's high-profile endorsements, the pressures of coronavirus and how their recent $50 million funding round is helping them work towards a better future of credit and credit checks.
