Missed Signals ~ The Startup That Could Have Beaten WhatsApp

What happens when two industry heavyweights—one from high finance, the other from cutting-edge tech—join forces to create a revolutionary startup? In this episode of Fayl Tales, I sit down with a guest who has worn some of the most prestigious titles in finance: Vice President at Morgan Stanley, Director at Merrill Lynch, and a guiding force behind multiple IPOs.

Join us for a deep dive into what went wrong, what could have been, and why sometimes, playing it too safe can be the biggest risk of all.
