On episode 55 I talk with Hany Fam of Markaaz. This episode was recorded at Fintech Nexus USA 2022, which took place in NYC on May 25 – 26.

Markaaz is building the definitive and trusted place for all businesses to connect, small and big, powered by its world’s first pre-verified directory of over 100 million businesses.
