Founders Unfiltered: In conversation with TradeLedger
Martin McCann has spent over 20 years building and backing tech companies around the world.
Spotting a shift that others were missing, he founded TradeLedger, moved to London, and partnered with Microsoft to change how banks lend to businesses.
In November 2025, TradeLedger was acquired by United Fintech.
Now Martin’s back to share what really happened - the bets, the pressure, and the decisions that don’t make the headline.
