Occasionally, things you want eventually find their way into your life if you are willing to go for them when the time comes. Serial entrepreneur and fintech professional Jay Modi always wanted to pursue his career in the business world, and that’s precisely what he was destined for.
Jay is an entrepreneur with over twenty years of professional business and entrepreneurial experience. Born in London, United Kingdom, Jay later relocated to Canada in 1997. Believing he had the necessary business experience to move forward in his career, he left the University of Calgary to explore other professional opportunities.
With a passion for the business world, Jay created an organic pasta company while pursuing his post-secondary education. He subsequently launched a real estate “fix and flip” company which became very successful. Jay then went on to asset management, which was not as successful as his other ventures, but it taught him a lot about what to avoid in business and what not to do.
Jay has dabbled in diverse roles and sectors, including food manufacturing, asset management, film production, and real estate. He has learned massively through his successes as well as his failures and experiences, which allowed him to have an insight into loyalty, trust, and human behavior. Moreover, his technical skill set also improved as he perfected himself in terms of financial stability by understanding insurance policies, investor relations, fiduciary obligations, corporate restructures, court proceedings, and the legal intricacies of any large-scale business.
His most recent endeavors focus primarily on the FinTech and Technology Industries. Founded by Jay in 2016, Approval Nation and its partner companies provide financial resources to customers looking for a loan, and it has been recognized as one of the most successful businesses in Canada.
All’s well that ends well, and Jay has learned to be careful with whom he trusts in business. His vast experience gives him a competitive edge and solidifies that he is a force to reckon with in the entrepreneurial and fintech sphere in Canada.
