Thanks Javier for sharing. Just to clarify Javier, Angela is a "she". :)

For more context, here is the keynote that Angela gave at the inaugural
Fintech DevCon sponsored by Moov. I helped give her some background on
Mifos in preparation of her talk.

She spends about two minutes talking about Mifos/Fineract and includes the
Paul Ramsey quote I've used to highlight the virtuous cycle.

You should listen to the whole talk but the Mifos mention is at about 20:35
in: https://youtu.be/fJQF93zL9PA

I will be doing a blog post soon noting our ongoing interactions with Angel
and a16z and this strong endorsement/recognition of mifos/fineract.
