Community, Brand & Partnerships - UAE

About Aspora

Aspora is building a Financial Services platform for immigrants around the world. We are backed by influential venture capitalists like Sequoia Capital, Greylock Partners, Hummingbird Ventures, Y Combinator, Global Founders Capital, Soma Capital, and are on a mission to simplify global banking as easily as booking an Uber.

We’re first taking on the Indian diaspora - the largest and wealthiest immigrant population. 15 million Non-Resident Indians hold over $1.5T in wealth of which $500B is back in India. They remit $125B back every year and account for 25% of all real estate purchases in India. Yet, the banking experiences of these NRIs are archaic. We’re building a new age platform to service these NRIs with cross border money movement.

We are a team of 40 that works with the intensity and the agility of a sports team. With innovation, hustle, and collaboration at our core, we aim to build better banking for all immigrants around the world. Discover more about our work, our ethos, and our vision on our website, Aspora
