What would you do if the only thing standing between you and your dream career was money?
For millions of students across Asia, financial barriers decide their future. Traditional loans are often out of reach, and even when available, they saddle young people with years of debt before they've even started their careers. But what if there were another way?
In the latest episode of our podcast, Mario Ferro, founder of Waiser, came forward to discuss how the Pay-It-Forward model are transforming access to education. Instead of focusing on credit history, Waiser invests in potential—ensuring that capable, motivated students have the chance to pursue their studies regardless of financial background.
The conversation with Mario Ferro is both eye-opening and inspiring. It challenges us to think differently about how education is funded, and what's possible when we remove financial barriers to learning.
