Episode notes
In this episode, we sit down with Michael O'Loughlin, Managing Partner at Argonautic Global, to get into the practical realities of Irish companies entering the US market. Michael has spent two decades working across banking, payments, regulation, central banking and venture capital — with experience spanning Ireland, Europe, the Middle East and the United States. Before his current role, he served as Chief Advisor to the Deputy Governor at the Saudi Central Bank and Strategic Advisor to Fintech Saudi, helping build one of the region's fastest growing fintech ecosystems from the ground up. This episode is about what actually works when Irish companies come to the US — and what doesn't.
