Meet Peggy Mangot. Payments expert, fintech founder, banker, and now, corporate innovator. I am, and have always been, drawn to Peggy's passion for using technology to improve people's lives and most specifically, their relationship with money. I first met Peggy when she was founder and CEO of SparkGift, a Y-Combinator backed micro-investing platform that made it easy to give and receive investment gifts at scale. Before SparkGift, she led Google’s payments & commerce partnership team, launching new products and helping scale mobile payments. Peggy has truly seen all sides of financial services and has also held senior roles at Visa, Allianz, Accenture, PwC and the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago during her impressive career.
After a successful exit of SparkGift, Peggy decided to go back to the corporate world and join Wells Fargo as an SVP in their Innovation Group. The group was created in 2015 as an enterprise-wide organization devoted to accelerating Wells Fargo’s delivery of next-generation, customer-inspired technologies, products and services. As the GM for innovation-led initiatives, including Greenhouse and enterprise digital Identity Management, Peggy leads a team of 300+ cross functional players shaping the future of banking.
