Cross-Border B2B Payments Infrastructure with Malini Kannan of Thunes
Manage episode 387942126 series 3351707
In this episode, I speak with Malini Kannan, CEO Office of Thunes, a global B2B cross-border payments infrastructure company.
Malini grew up in India and started her career in Singapore, working in research and strategy across a diverse set of sectors. After her MBA from INSEAD, Malini focused more directly on the fintech space, working across the industry and landing at TransferTo, which incubated the business that eventually become Thunes. At Thunes, Malini has covered every aspect of the business - starting as a Strategy & Operations Manager, moving up to COO, and now she leads the CEO Office.
Thunes was originally founded in 2016 under TransferTo, which focused on cross-border airtime top-ups and other value-added services. TransferTo rebranded as DT One, where Thunes was incubated. Since then, Thunes has grown into one of the largest and most well-known B2B payments companies in Singapore. They now serve customers in more than 130 countries, have offices in 20 cities, and have closed their $72M USD Series C funding round in July 2023.
