Paul Fiore is a fintech entrepreneur and builder whose foundational work in online banking technology transformed how financial institutions serve clients digitally. In 1995, he co-founded Digital Insight, growing it into a market leader in online banking and financial management software for banks and credit unions. Under his guidance, Digital Insight went public in 1999 and later attracted acquisition interest from strategic acquirers, ultimately being purchased by Intuit in 2007 for approximately $1.35 billion. 
Beyond that, Paul has continued building in the payments and financial services space—founding ventures such as DoubleBeam (acquired by Verifone in 2014) and CU Wallet (later acquired by CU Solutions Group). 
Today, Paul partners with founders in fintech, payments, SaaS, and RegTech to help them sharpen product-market fit, build defensibility, and position for breakthrough outcomes.
“I’ve built businesses where technology meets trust in highly regulated industries—knowing how to scale, navigate risk, and structure for exit is what I bring to founders now.”
