Tammy Camp, CEO, Stronghold

As Stronghold, a fintech, crypto, and artificial intelligence (AI) company, knows well, the best business ideas come from personal experience. Founders Tammy Camp and Sean Bennett grew up in immigrant families; Camp's came to America years ago, while Bennett's moved from the Philippines to New Zealand. While there, Bennett's mother would send money back home only to see transfer fees eat a large portion of her earnings. This helped develop the vision for Stronghold and the goal of creating an accessible financial future for all.

Camp, Stronghold's CEO, says, “When you're sending money to your family and you're getting heavily charged, that's a big problem—so we made our business about cross-border payments.”
