Victor Trokoudes is the Co-Founder and CEO of Plum, a Scale Up 5 Cohort member and a fintech company enhancing personal finance through innovative technology. Initially launched as a messenger bot, Plum has evolved into an AI-driven app designed to empower users in managing their savings, making informed investment decisions, and analyzing their spending habits.
