A friend at Monzo jokingly gave me a hard time about Monzo growing faster than Starling
To be fair though, their growth is equivalent if you control for launch date:
Monzo took 1058 days from launch to hit 1m customers, whereas Starling hit 1m customers after just 916 days⚡️

A woman in the audience asked the panel a question about what to do about the fact that confident women leaders are often seen negatively. My advice? Be confident anyway. We need confident women leaders. The world doesn’t benefit by us shrinking so that others aren’t intimidated.
Female leaders talking about women in payments: great to hear so many personal stories from
@ManuelaAndaloro
and
@MeganCaywood
! We all need to help raise awareness on unconscious biases in the work environment
