THE WINNER: ESUSU
Esusu, winner of the Start-Up Award, is transforming fintech for social impact by addressing credit invisibility in the US.
Co-founded by Wemimo Abbey and Samir Goel, the company helps renters, especially from marginalised groups, build credit through on-time rent payments.
Its flagship product, myEsusu, enables users to report rent to all three major credit bureaus, regardless of their landlord’ s systems. Crucially, it avoids penalising missed payments.
