Hany Rashwan makes us proud

Making us feel proud this morning is 26 year-old Hany Rashwan, who is featured in Forbes’ 30 Under 30: Enterprise Tech list for 2017. Rashwan, a Cairo native now living in San Francisco, “built the first in-stream social commerce ‘buy buttons’ on Twitter and Facebook through his startup Ribbon in 2012. He later left Columbia University to found his second startup Payout.com, whose payouts, disbursements and compliance API are used by top online lenders, such as LendUp and Prosper.”
