Launch Pad

Fig Loans is super cool for a bunch of reasons: 1)They’re in the payday loans business, but they’re helping people rebuild their credit; 2)The founders are Wharton alumni who met and founded the company while they were getting their MBAs (fun fact: their first project, created at PennApps Hackathon two weeks before school started, was a game called Llama Run);3)Karl loves the way they identified the opportunity for Fig Loans; 4)Their goal is to “survive indefinitely and to not rely on venture capital money, but to take it, instead, for purposeful growth.” There’s so much here to love.
