‘Nobody in their right mind’ would start a company. Whether you agree or not, listen to the conversation with Nektarios Liolios, a four-time co-founder and host of a podcast on mental health of entrepreneurs.
Nektarios Liolios https://www.linkedin.com/in/nekliolios/
Fintech entrepreneur, ecosystem builder and mental health advocate. Son of Greek immigrants, born in Germany and moved to London 27 years ago.
Nektarios ‘fell into' banking and spent the first 15 years of his career in very traditional roles within financial institutions. This changed in 2011 when he joined an innovation team at SWIFT, a step that led him out of the corporate world and into entrepreneurship. Since then he has started multiple businesses and has worked closely with hundreds of entrepreneurs and early-stage businesses.
He launched the Innotribe Startup Challenge, the first global fintech startup competition and cofounded Startup bootcamp FinTech, the world’s largest fintech startup accelerator and Rainmaking Innovation. He also cofounded The Future Farm, a global community dedicated to healthier entrepreneurship,
His latest venture is Radish Credit, a lending-as-a-service platform, helping underserved communities finance important life needs.
Driven by entrepreneurship, collaboration and the desire to improve the lives of people, Nektarios is a global nomad, travel geek, and sneaker freaked.
