We’re proud to be included in the Fintech Power 50’s class of 2020 and now in its second annual industry guide. Of course, we encourage you to read “New Horizons”, an article contributed by our CEO Clay Wilkes. (Take a look at our ad on page 4, too!). But, we also encourage you to review the rest of the rich content submitted by other members of the Fintech Power 50 and leading industry influencers. These include the Emerging Payments Association’s Director General Tony Craddock, the “Finanser” Chris Skinner, payments gurus David Parker and Jim Marous, and fintech mentor Dr. Ruth Wandhöfer.
Their predictions and views will intrigue and inform you, and it’s interesting that—although writing independently—the importance of data is a pervasive theme. And, don’t miss Chris Skinner’s article, which opens with the LOL-worthy line: “Data isn’t the new oil; it’s air.” 2020 is off to a great start at Galileo and we’re delighted to be included among the most influential, innovative companies and powerful figures within the fintech industry.
