This week, SavvyWise CEO Drew Pflaum and COO Nitin Arora join Schoey to unpack how falling into the AI rabbit hole lead to one of Australia’s fastest growing AI accounting startups. Walking away from their careers, to build a product they believe can solve the accountant shortage crisis. The boys open up about the risks, self doubt and obsession that comes with going all in on a big idea. They chat about building a company at 100km an hour, creating the “SavvyWise mafia.” Family, identity, entrepreneurship and the mindset required to back yourself against the odds.
