May 05, 2023

We had our 7th Entrepreneurs' Talk Series by Ms. Mabel Chacko {Co-Founder & COO at Open Financial Technologies Pvt. Ltd.}
Ms. Mabel graced the ETS event conducted by MILES on the 5th of May 2023, at the MAHE Bengaluru Campus. Mabel is a fintech innovator and serial entrepreneur with over 16 years of experience in the fintech domain. She is the co-founder of OPEN, a neobanking platform that offers a business banking platform for SMEs and startups. OPEN is Asia's first SME-focused neobanking platform that automates business payments, banking, and accounting functions in one unified service. This allows business owners to focus on their core business while streamlining their financial operations. She co-founded her first startup, CashNxt, in 2007, which was a plug-and-play mobile payment and financial inclusion solution specifically designed for semi-urban and rural markets. CashNxt was later acquired by a Latin American company. In 2009, she moved on to build Neartivity Wireless, an NFC-based payment processing platform. In 2013, she co-founded Zwitch, India's first developer-focused payment platform, which was later acquired by Citrus Payments in 2015. 

Her talk inspired us all as she shared the highlights of her journey and few key learnings as an entrepreneur. We thank her whole heartedly for this amazing experience.
