Andrea Prazakova on the intersection of fintech and climate action

We’re joined on the episode by Andrea Prazakova, Senior Vice President at Mastercard Foundry and ESG for EEMEA. She’s also the co-founder of Space Uncensored, a podcast that aims to amplify the voices of women in the space industry.

According to JPMogran, the worldwide digital payments industry is currently estimated at US$ 54 trillion. As this number continues to grow, it provides exciting opportunities to create a massive positive impact across sectors. We talk about the role of the fintech industry in helping us achieve the transition to net zero, and meeting the 2030 and 2050 targets.

This is part of our special series, Climate Leaders - Rising up to COP28. We’re sharing inspiring stories of sustainability leaders and climate champions, driving impact from our region to the world.
