Why we're not entering awards this year:   1. We appreciate the trust our customers put in us and we enjoy helping their businesses to grow. We want you to know we’re investing our time into making our products and services even better rather than writing really great award submissions. 2. We love being part of the fintech world. Like us, we think our competitors are doing a great job in creating a vibrant ecosystem. Sure, we sometimes come up against them in competitive bids and when we do, we often win, but there is room in our market for more than one business to succeed. For us, the most important judges are our customers, so for now at least, we've decided to channel our energy into impressing those voters.   3. Okay, so we might be sore losers as well!   That’s not to say we’re never going to re-enter the world of industry awards, so watch this space. But don’t worry… we’ll still be at all the events, cheering everybody on and buying a few rounds at the end of the night! #TalkToTell #FinTech #Awards

Less than a year ago, I took a leap into fintech—a world I knew very little about. I’d be lying if I said it was easy. At one point, I nearly walked away. But looking back now, I’m beyond grateful I didn’t. One of my proudest moments was closing one of the industry’s biggest names. It took endless hours, strategic pitches, and countless iterations. When it finally happened, the feeling was surreal. I still remember the goosebumps I had and how I could barely speak when my team called us in for a congratulatory meeting!! Steve Luiz - A huge shoutout to you for keeping me sane throughout the process and patiently bearing with me while I made you put in the extra hours to help me close this account.😅 And also, here's to the entire BeFiSc team for their unwavering support—I couldn’t have done it without you. 💙 Since then, it’s been a blend of wins and challenges, but that’s what makes this industry, and especially, my line of work so exhilarating. From struggling to understand client needs to delivering tailored solutions that hit the mark, the growth has been immense. Here’s to the road ahead—more learning, more wins, and embracing every challenge along the way! 🚀💪 #LifeInFraudDetection #IdentityVerification #API #CustomerOnboarding #Solutions #RiskManagement #FraudPrevention #FintechSolutions

One of the best moments in building a tech company is when you sit down with people who truly “get it.” Whether they’ve done it before, support founders, or are founders themselves, things just move faster. I’m not saying you get a guaranteed “yes", but talking to these people feels easier and more natural. At LA #Techweek, playing poker with founders and investors was just like that and incredibly cool!! Plus I won at my table! (sorry Luis Jorge Sánchez ) Huge thanks to Carmen Palafox for organizing the game and for listening to me share our ambitious vision of transforming the global accounting industry with AI! #Taxgpt #Taxes #Startup #Techweek #Accounting #AI

Learning to invest is a journey that unfolds over time. The first step? Start by educating yourself 📚💡 That’s exactly what MultiGenerational is on a mission to make possible for first-time investors. When founder Leslie Lewis sought support from Bank of America for the accelerator, the impact of Breakthrough Lab was amplified when Bank of America selected DBC as a partner. This opened doors to new opportunities and innovations ever since. As a Black-owned FinTech company focused on advancing racial wealth parity, MultiGenerational’s brand identity needed to deeply resonate with the communities they aim to empower. With the motto "Equity through Equities," we designed a brand that speaks directly to Black families, empowering first-time African American investors to build wealth for generations to come. But our partnership with MultiGenerational goes beyond branding. They are also our 401k provider, and we continue to support them as they grow and make a lasting impact on the financial landscape. We’re proud to be part of their journey! #Branding #FinTech #BlackOwnedBusiness #BreakthroughLab #StudioDBC
