Adam Šoukal

Adam worked at the financial epicenter of Europe – City of London, at Santander, where he was in charge of credit products for companies and corporations. In this environment, he got inspired and, thanks to his job in a bank, he knew what problems caused long invoices due dates for SMEs and what opportunities this situation represents.

Therefore, he returned to the Czech Republic, where he founded Payment Institution Roger (formerly Investment Auction), linking the demand of companies for quick financing of issued invoices and investors who finance invoices. Since its inception, Roger has conducted more than 10,000 investment auctions and has financed over 3 billion crowns.

In collaboration with partners, Roger is launching other innovative financial technologies, such as Alza Invoice Financing. At the conference, Adam will present how FINTECH startup can successfully scale its services through cooperation with the largest e-commerce player in the Czech Republic.
