This is your host Gonz, and today I'm with Federico Travella, CEO and founder of NoviCap, a company that helps business unlock cash stuck in outstanding invoices and improve their cash flow.

NoviCap has offices in Spain, The Netherlands and the UK and they are on track to finance over one billion euros by the end of 2021.
Federico is a geologist by training and before NoviCap, he was a Managing Director at Rocket Internet in Southeast Asia and EVP at Lazada Group.

He has lived in multiple countries and speaks 7 languages so he has a unique perspective on life, technology and business that is reflected in our conversation.

In today's episode we cover absolutely everything:

  • Federico’s origin story, including his pivot from geologist to tech entrepreneur
  • What he learned during his time at Rocket Internet
  • Why Federico started NoviCap, their approach to fundraising and their unique hiring process
  • How COVID-19 might impact european tech hubs such as Spain
  • The role government should play in fostering entrepreneurship
  • The future of Fintech

I was introduced to Federico by a Seedtable reader and I couldn't be happier I got to know him. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.
