Builders #42

The podcast with fintech founders and VC operators

The latest episode of Builders is out now. In this episode, I sit down with Aurimas Bakas, CEO and founder of Copla.

Here a short clip from the video, full episode here:

Aurimas is a serial fintech entrepreneur and chief executive with over two decades of experience building and scaling technology-driven businesses across Europe and globally. He is currently the co-founder of Copla, focusing on bridging the gap between cyber readiness and operational security in fintech.

Aurimas is best known for founding Paysolut, a banking technology company serving fintech scale ups, which was successfully acquired by SumUp in 2021. His track record also includes multiple exits, such as DtecNet to MarkMonitor and Marguard to Prisync, alongside leadership roles in companies later acquired by QUAERO CAPITAL.

Earlier in his career, he played a key role in expanding international operations for Gaumina and scaling DtecNet into a global anti piracy leader. His experience spans payments, data infrastructure, and enterprise software, complemented by executive education at University of California, Berkeley.

With him, we will talk about the experience of a serial entrepreneur, but also how compliance is impacting the fintech market, and how hard it is to launch a company today.

As always, enjoy and share.
