Sandipan Chakraborty, team captain of the first Swiss National Startup Team Fintech and CEO & founder of Sonect, has recently been interviewed by Cédric Bollag from GlobalTechBox.com. They talked about the challenges of networking and the future of payments.

After 12 years in the corporate world Chakraborty decided to found his own company. He wanted his innovative suggestions to be approved and implemented, so Sonect was born. The startup enables every shop in the neighbourhood to act as a virtual ATM and democratizes the process of cash distribution so that a significant portion of the value chain can be eliminated in order to make the process faster, cheaper and safer.

He was chosen as team captain of the first Swiss fintech team in the venture leaders history. He is one of the 10 high potential Swiss startups that went on a business and financing roadshow to New York last week. They reflect the acceleration of the Swiss fintech scene in the recent years and the impressive quality of its startups. It was a real highlight for all of them as they attended „Finovate“ – the largest Fintech conference, met with several US investors and had an open demo night.
