Sam Altman Gave These Kids Millions To Reinvent The Credit Card

In #31, Michael Sikand (@michaelsikand) and Simran Sandhu (@_simmy_) discuss Hypercard and Integral. Backed with $15M in funding led by Sam Altman and a blockbuster partnership with American Express, Hypercard is building the first credit card backed by your employer. The company was started by two Gen Z business prodigies–Niko Ioannou and Marc Baghadjian–who've already had tremendous success. Next up is Integral, a data certification startup in the healthcare industry. Founded by young guns Shubh Sinha and John Kuhn, Integral removes the need for teams of consultants to properly anonymize the sensitive patient data healthcare firms need to run their businesses. They have raised $6M for their software platform that complies with industry's regulations and removes the middleman providing better data to an industry more reliant on it than others.
