Our Leg Up

Thrilled to be part of Startupbootcamp's Sustainable Fintech Program! 🌍🏡

Our Leg Up Ignites the Future at COBA 2024! Our Leg Up was thrilled to be at Customer Owned Banking Association 2024 in Adelaide, where our CEO Michael (Rahulan) Ragavan, CTO David Hellier and CRO Ron V. had an opportunity to engage with industry leaders to explore how FinTech innovation can transform homeownership for Australians. This event, with its theme "Ignite the Future," was a fantastic opportunity to connect with like-minded professionals passionate about creating solutions for purpose-led banking. A highlight for us? One was meeting Effie Zahos, one of Australia’s top personal finance experts! Her insights into how financial literacy can empower the next generation perfectly align with OurLegUp’s mission to democratise access to homeownership. Looking forward to continuing many conversations post COBA! #COBA2024 #FinTech #HomeOwnership #OurLegUp #FinancialInclusion

#COBA24 wrap - my first time and I must say, the positive vibe, friendliness and support from attendees, exhibitors and presenters was fantastic I got one last #cobaselfie with the amazing MC for the event, Effie Zahos, who was gracious enough to stop momentarily (and risk her hairdo 😅) under a little drizzle! I'm sure you were amazing filling in for Alan Kohler today!! Michael (Rahulan) Ragavan, David Hellier and I enjoyed speaking with lenders and interested parties about how Our Leg Up will help to address access to home ownership And to top it off, I must hand it to the organising team Customer Owned Banking Association who put on a remarkable closing party. The amazing Furnace and the Fundamentals were the highlight, playing everything from Lady Gaga to Nirvana, to Barbie girl and Queen...superb! Looking forward to next year!! #mutualbanks | #homeownership | #ignitethefuture | #fintechfeast | #fintech | #housing Paul Apolony Shane Chanel Ian Cragg Kathy Constan Chris Slater Akhilesh Mehta Andrew Prichard Adam Caines Ben Smith Chris Titley Madeline Cunningham Jennifer Harrison

It all starts with people and community. Thank you, Craig Foster AM, for your inspiring leadership in human rights. #COBA24 Craig posed a powerful question to the community banking sector, which serves many Australian refugee migrants: What would you do if your family was in their shoes? At Our Leg Up, we’re building a community around homeownership, supporting those who can’t rely on family in the country to help them secure their first home. #mutualbanks | #ignitethefuture | #fintechfeast

#COBA24 Closing session: Great to hear from an inspiring Australian, Craig Foster AM, providing a level of perspective, delivered with passion gained from lived experience, helping smuggle people, Australians, out of war torn zones... So many of us are migrants or have family and friends overseas, or have travelled to distant countries. Given this, it's hard not to relate to the stories and feel fortunate to live in this wonderful country. Craig challenged the audience: what would you be prepared to do if your family member was in that scenario? #mutualbanks | #ignitethefuture | #fintechfeast
