  • Answering the question about what I do as a fractional Exec?

    Answering the question about what I do as a fractional Exec?
    Apr 5 2023

    As most of my work involves stealth startups it was hard to go into details about what I do as a Fractional Executive but I did give a good high-level overview of our value.

    Do learn about the two public startups I'm involved in as a CIO resource, I believe Fursa Capital especially will blow your mind if you have any interest in FinTech, and whether you want to come on as a user, employee or investor there's plenty happening!

    Fursa Capital and Mecca Digital were founded by Usman Waheed, an amazing CEO, and serial entrepreneur with several successful exits
