Did you know the fastest-growing segment of entrepreneurship and business ownership is actually women? And at the forefront of that movement is today’s guest, a true powerhouse whose story is as inspiring as it is game-changing. Our guest is Suneera Madhani — a visionary entrepreneur, FinTech innovator, and champion for women in business. Suneera is the trailblazing founder of Worth, a revolutionary platform that uses patent-pending AI technology to help small businesses gain fair access to capital. It’s a bold, brilliant idea that’s leveling the playing field for entrepreneurs everywhere. But her story didn’t start at the top. Before founding Worth, Suneera built Stax Payments from the ground up, transforming a simple idea into a multibillion-dollar company with over $140 million in recurring revenue.
