Twin Brothers Building a FinTech Venture: Stephen Roche and Gabino Roche, CoFounders of Saphyre (Part 7)

Sramana Mitra: Would you now call yourself an exchange where there is a lot of inter-financial institution stuff happening?

Gabino Roche: I think that’s a fair analogy. It’s voluntary, because you don’t have to participate. If you do, there are a lot of carrots that come along with it. I like to call it an operating system for finance. The reason I say this is Stephen mentioned it earlier. Everyone had their own on-premise database. They would take Polaroid snapshots of the data, email them together, and then these spreadsheets will upload to our respective systems.

Sramana Mitra: The workflow that you are facilitating is in the KYC AML in the context of trading.

Gabino Roche: A little bit. Everyone uses the term KYC AML and they imply tax, which is not necessarily KYC AML. They imply contractual legal agreements that are negotiated.

These are on top of KYC AML.

Koncert (formerly ConnectLeader) CEO Senraj Soundar had bootstrapped his company to over $10 million in revenue when we spoke in 2017. We love stories like this that reinforce our philosophy: “Do not go to VCs as beggars, go as kings!”

Sramana Mitra: Let’s start at the very beginning of your journey. Where are you from? Where were you born, raised, and in what kind of background?

Senraj Soundar: I was born and brought up in India, particularly in Southern India. I got my Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering in Chennai. Around that time when I graduated, I received an award from the President of India for the best invention in the country. It was called the National Technology Award. They give out one award each year. I won that award in 1991, and it was given in 1992. The following year, I came to the US and went to UMass to get my Computer Science degree.
