How Did Lissele Spot a Gap to Serve the Underserved Global Market, Aged Just 23?

In today’s Tech Talks episode David explores how compliance and AI are cleaning up global payments.

Lissele Pratt (Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree) founded Capitalixe to service the high-risk industries, think about the likes of crypto and iGaming, that traditional banks refuse to onboard.

She discusses spotting this market gap at age 23, building trust as an emerging voice in finance, and using blockchain to connect underserved global communities in Latin America, Africa, and Southeast Asia.

But frankly her journey started much earlier that 23, and that is the foundation to her success!
