Episode description

Ben Sheppard is the Co-Founder of Silta Finance, a protocol that truly paves the way for a more sustainable future.

Too many sustainability-focused projects never receive the necessary financing due to the cumbersome due diligence process required by traditional banks. 

Silta's solution? A platform enabling the tokenization of due dilligence processes -through non fungible tokens (NFTs). This enables borrowers to go through the painful due dilligence process once only yet apply for funding applications towards multiple banks and lenders, saving tons of time, money and headaches.

Ben's life journey before crypto is also truly inspiring: he was at the helm of a very successful company and was living the high life before losing it all following new Government laws, which killed his company and lifestyle overnight.

Come learn with Ben about the entrepreneurship rollercoaster, success, failure and resilience in this truly inspiring episode.
