It’s hard to believe it’s been 15 years since the global financial crisis of 2007/2008. While this might be a blast from the past we’d rather leave in the proverbial rear-view mirror, in March of 2023 we were back to the future with the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), the largest US bank to fail since 2008. While there are clear reasons SVB collapsed, which can be reviewed here , my purpose in this post isn’t to rehash the past but to present some of the regulatory and compliance c

When you’re deep in product development, it can be surprisingly easy to overlook who you’re making your product for. You may understand the technical nuances of the problems you’re solving or the general trends in your market, but if you can’t truly empathize with the people experiencing those problems, you’ll build a sub-optimal product. This sounds pretty obvious, but understanding your product’s users is often easier said than done, especially when you’re building for multiple different perso
