He shares about the value of optimizing for a sustainable business model versus top line growth, his app-less approach to building tech for the tech illiterate, scaling risk management with the right data sets and engines, and what it takes to win over world-class technical talent, among other experiences and learnings. Check out our past conversations with Dino on the origins of AwanTunai (in 2021 and in 2020).
