Abbey Wemimo is cofounder of Esusu.

Taking out a loan with 400% interest after immigrating to the United States, Minnesota specifically, is a heralding experience.

Abbey and his hyper-focused co-founder, Samir Goel, decided to build a company around their experiences accessing credit as America’s newest immigrants. They knew something had to change and persevered from a 1.6M Series A in November 2019 to a 130M Series B, valuing Esusu at $1B.

Esusu’s success is genuinely inspiring that we can all celebrate, after 300 investors said “no” Abbey remained resolute in their mission and they aren’t stopping at $1B.
