By Dexter Cousins on 29/04/2025

Dexter Cousins recently caught up with Josh Foreman, CEO of Indebted to discuss their global expansion and recent Series C capital raise.

Josh first appeared on the show in 2020 and he shares the lessons he has learned from writing Indebted's first line of code to launching in 7 countries!

In this catch up we discuss the evolution of the debt collection industry, the challenges of consumer fintech, and how Indebted are building the infrastructure for Credit.

We also talk about the impacts of AI on their operations, and the strategic decisions that have led to their expansion into multiple markets.

Foreman also shares insights on the future of credit infrastructure and the lessons learned throughout his entrepreneurial journey.

Highlight

My favourite insight from the chat with Josh is the critical role of intuition in entrepreneurship. Listen in from the 35 minute mark for some great insights by Josh.
