Asya Bradley, a former fintech founder and investor, has joined Stripe as its new head of Startup & Venture Capital Partnerships, marking a significant addition to the payments giant's team. Bradley announced the news on February 2 in a post on LinkedIn, although her bio reveals that she actually joined Stripe in November.
Bradley's appointment is notable, given her extensive experience in the fintech industry. Prior to joining Stripe, she spent three years as the chief revenue officer of Synapse, a fintech company that unfortunately ceased operations in 2024, leaving thousands of customers surprised and stranded. She then served as the VP of revenue at startup Sila for five months, became a venture partner with igniteXL Ventures for a year, and co-founded Kinly, a financial services startup that catered to Black Americans. Kinly was later sold to Greenwood, a digital banking platform for Black and Latino individuals and businesses, in 2023.
Bradley's entrepreneurial spirit and investment expertise will undoubtedly be valuable assets to Stripe's startup partner program. The program aims to work with venture capital firms and startup accelerators to bring exclusive Stripe benefits to portfolio companies. In recent years, Stripe has acquired several startups, including its most recent announcement to acquire stablecoin platform Bridge for a whopping $1 billion. This acquisition spree demonstrates Stripe's commitment to expanding its capabilities and reach in the fintech space.
As the head of Startup & Venture Capital Partnerships, Bradley will likely play a key role in identifying and fostering strategic partnerships with startups and venture capital firms. Her experience as a limited partner in venture funds, including Cowboy Ventures and Ganas Ventures, and her position on the investment committee of the Cap Table Coalition, will provide her with a unique perspective on the startup ecosystem. The Cap Table Coalition, founded by Richie Serna, CEO of payments startup Finix, aims to bring in investors who have historically been left out of the investing process.
Stripe's startup partner program has been instrumental in driving growth and innovation in the fintech industry. With Bradley at the helm, the company is poised to further strengthen its position as a leader in the payments space. As the fintech landscape continues to evolve, Bradley's appointment is a significant development that will be closely watched by industry observers.
In conclusion, Asya Bradley's appointment as Stripe's head of Startup & Venture Capital Partnerships marks a significant milestone in the company's growth strategy. With her extensive experience and expertise in the fintech industry, Bradley is well-positioned to drive innovation and growth in the startup ecosystem. As the fintech industry continues to evolve, Bradley's leadership will be instrumental in shaping the future of payments and financial services.
