Katie currently serves as chief marketing officer at crypto and tokenization infrastructure platform zerohash and previously led marketing and partnership for brokerage Public.com. Katie and I had a wide-ranging conversation, discussing: * How corporate communications and investor relations have changed with the rise in importance of retail investors * The role communities on sites like X and Reddit play for investors * The growth of “fandoms” of specific corporate executives and companies * The blurring lines between investing and gambling * How consumer and B2B marketing have evolved over time * Why it’s critical for fintechs to build trust and how they can do it * And much, much more And a reminder, if you’re enjoying this show, please follow, rate & review on your preferred podcast platform, as it really helps others to find the show.
