Could faster cashflow unlock adtech’s next growth wave? with Chris Pettit, CEO at Revving

Adtech has spent years making advertising faster, smarter and more automated. So why are businesses still waiting 60, 90 or even 120 days to get paid? As payment terms continue to stretch, cashflow is becoming one of the industry's biggest barriers to growth, yet it's a challenge that rarely gets the attention it deserves.

In this episode of Legends of Adtech, Julia Linehan is joined by Chris Pettit, CEO and Co-founder of Revving, to explore the hidden cost of "paid on paper", why delayed payments are holding businesses back, and what founders, CFOs and industry leaders can do to unlock growth by putting cashflow at the heart of their strategy.

Welcome to Legends of Adtech: the podcast where we go beyond the buzzwords and straight to the people at the coalface of the adtech industry.
