Summary: About The Guest: Maomao's experiences have focused on the intersection between machines and people. In 2014, he founded the Artificial Intelligence practice at management consulting firm The Capital Markets Company. Later, he joined AI startup Neurensic to lead technical sales and implementation for their machine learning based compliance solution. Seeing the potential and impact of Blockchain, he moved from AI to co-found Kora. Description: We're a blockchain company that is focused on bringing access to financial services to as many people as possible. We're building a blockchain network and embedding into it functionality where it can be accessed by anyone, and helping people access the blockchain without internet by going through telecomm network. We have betas lined up this year that are diverse in nature - including payments to Nigerian farmers, trade financing to Colombian coffee exporters, and core systems for a Bangladeshi co-op - but all solve the same problem of financial infrastructure.
