About this event

Join us for an exclusive roundtable led by Sheel Mohnot, one of the world’s most influential fintech investors at the pre-seed and seed stages. As the co-founder of Better Tomorrow Ventures, Sheel has helped launch and scale several multi-billion-dollar fintech companies across the globe and manges $300M for investments. Sheel will be joined by Salim Dhanani of Pave Bank, building the first programmable bank, based in Georgia, building for the world! This roundtable is presented under the umbrella of the Georgian Startup Summit, continuing the tradition of connecting local innovators with the global frontier of technology and investment.

Sheel and Salim will do a deep dive into the history of fintech that has led us to this moment, the future that they see and the ways AI and blockchain will influence it. 

At this crossroads in history with AI rewriting the rules, join two deeply experienced fintech leaders to explore the dynamics of money, payments, and banking, and what awaits us in this time of rapid change. 

Hear about the journeys of these two world-class fintech leaders, what led them to the work they do today, and what they are betting on for the future!

The discussion will include a dialog between the speakers, then freeform discussion and AMA among the small group.   Catch a glimpse of fintech history being made from two sides of the planet and two sides of the negotiating table! 

Importantly, Sheel and Salim will provide strategic insights on how startups and established players alike can adapt to the explosion of AI and other trends— from analyzing what you do today, to planning for likely tomorrows.

Whether you're building in fintech, investing in it, or simply eager to understand where the industry is headed, this workshop will offer rich perspective and practical direction from one of the field’s most respected voices.

Space is limited.

Registration will be based on First come First served principle.
