Aditya Khurjekar: I'm here with my co-host, Amit Goel. Amit is in Bangalore, I'm in Princeton New Jersey, and we are really excited to have Jason Gardner of Marqeta from Oakland, California.
Amit Goel: Hell, everyone. Welcome to the show!
Aditya: I am so excited to welcome Jason. Thank you for taking the time early in the morning in California, and thank you to all of you in the audience. So, on the one hand, I am really excited that we can do this after the big news for Marqeta from last week. On the other hand, it is also a very sombre time. With what is happening in the country and the world—the protests, the pandemic... So many things are happening around us that are clearly on our minds, and I want to start with that, Jason. I know we are here to talk about FinTech, and we'll talk about Marqeta, but I want to also address what we see around us in our communities and our country. Jason, would you like to share your thoughts on that as we get going? |
