Throughout his life, Jason Wilk has had his fair share of challenges, just like all of us. After college, he would bounce from couch to couch as he built his first company, always trying to avoid the looming overdraft fee from his bank. He quickly learned he wasn’t alone with his struggle, so he started Dave, and with a suite of products and services, he is now upending the banking industry by helping more than 11 million customers avoid overdraft fees, bank, budget, find work, and build credit.

Today, he has built the company into a neobanking powerhouse–the fifth-fastest growing private company on the recent Inc. 5000 list –and has helped customers avoid more than $1 billion in overdraft fees. What many don’t know is that before the millions of customers, before the Inc 5000, and before his company’s $4 billion IPO were hundreds of failed VC meetings. 

In this introduction with Jason, we’ll discuss: 

•    How to overcome roadblocks.
•    How believing in your product is crucial to success. 
•    The future of neobanks. Who will use them? Why will they remain relevant?
•    Regulation and why he’s not too concerned about new regulation coming into the space.  

At the end, we’ll open it up for a quick Q and A with Jason.
