How did Quona Capital come to identify and pursue the trillion-dollar opportunity in emerging markets? This week, hosts Shannon Austin and Johan Bosini delve into Quona's journey from its roots in Accion's pioneering microfinance investments—including a significant windfall from a standout company—to becoming independent venture investors with a bold vision. Quona’s three founders, Monica Brand Engel, Jonathan Whittle, and Ganesh Rengaswamy, share how the focus on financial technology is the key to unlocking growth in vast, untapped populations of underbanked and unbanked consumers. We'll also explore how rapid digital adoption has enabled emerging markets to leapfrog traditional tech development, achieving levels of innovation and uptake that often surpass those in developed economies. Join us as we unpack the who, what, and why behind Quona's mission to capitalize on this unprecedented market opportunity.
