85: Auror, Phil Thomson on Fintech Chatter.

Dexter Cousins is joined by Phil Thomson, Co-CEO of Auror for episode 85 of Fintech Chatter Podcast.


Auror was founded in 2013 after realising that $100B+ was lost every year by retailers but there was no effective technology being used to report, solve, or prevent crime.

Through their data-driven crime management platform, Auror is helping to tackle crime by providing visibility over criminal activity. 

The platform enables retailers and police to harness the power of data to prevent crime and protect customers and employees.

Backed by Reinventure and now supporting Australia and New Zealand's biggest retailers, the business is expanding to North America and Europe.

Phil talks about what it means to be a force for good in Fintech and why New Zealand is producing some world-class Fintech's. Phil candidly shares some of the leadership challenges he has faced as a first-time founder.
