Today, Tyme is the fastest-growing bank in\r\nboth of its markets, serving over 17 million customers. While Tyme is digital-led, it\r\nstands out with its unique &#8220;phygital&#8221; strategy\u2014embedding banking into retail and\r\nworkplace ecosystems through kiosks, ambassadors, and till-point integrations to\r\naccelerate trust and adoption.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, Tyme plans to expand its footprint across Southeast Asia over the next\r\nfive years, with the aim of becoming the largest and most loved retail bank in each\r\nmarket it enters. In December 2024, Tyme completed a Series D capital raise led by\r\nNuBank, strengthening its position for continued growth.\r\n\r\nBefore leading GoTyme Bank in the Philippines, Nate held roles spanning general\r\nmanagement, product, and strategy. Notably, he helped grow MTN Mobile Money in\r\nSouth Africa to over 4 million customers and later led product and strategy at Tyme.\r\nNate began his career at Deloitte Consulting US in the Strategy

He earned both bachelor\u2019s and master\u2019s degrees in Engineering, beginning his career at Philips Electronics in the Netherlands. John swiftly rose to the position of Global Competitive Intelligence Manager before relocating to Dubai. His entrepreneurial journey began in 2013 with his first startup, Vound, an innovative voice social network. The launch of InstaShop in 2015 marked a turning point, inspired by his experiences with traditional grocery shopping. InstaShop quickly attracted investments from top-tier firms like Amazon, Venture Friends, and Jabbar Internet Group, experienced rapid growth and achieved net profitability, while fulfilling millions of orders monthly. In 2020, just five years after its founding, InstaShop was acquired by Delivery Hero, a DAX-listed public company, in a deal valuing the company at $360 million. The acquisition of InstaShop by the german publicly listed Delivery Hero is one of the largest exits in the Middle East &amp; North Africa region and the largest greek tech startup exit to date. Leveraging  his experience, John founded Revotech, a company dedicated to transforming industries with a primary focus on the healthcare industry.\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-buttons event-speakers-modal__speaker-view-bio is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-outline is-style-outline--12\"><a data-ctaText=\"View Bio\" data-destinationLink=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/author\/john-tsioris\/\" data-event=\"button\" class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/author\/john-tsioris\/\" aria-label=\"View bio of John Tsioris\">View Bio<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"event-speakers-modal__speaker splide__slide\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"event-speakers-modal__speaker-top js-speaker-top\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"event-speakers-modal__speaker-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"event-speakers-modal__speaker-image__img\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Marco-Veremis_Headshot-e1746050288760.jpeg?w=657\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\talt=\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMarco Veremis Avatar\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tloading=\"lazy\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"event-speakers-modal__speaker-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"event-speakers-modal__speaker-name\">Marco Veremis<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"event-speakers-modal__speaker-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tFounding Partner, Big Pi Ventures\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"event-speakers-modal__speaker-socials js-speaker-socials\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a rel=\"nofollow\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/marco-veremis-03356\/?originalSubdomain=gr\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"event-speakers-modal__speaker-social\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\ttarget=\"_blank\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"><path fill=\"var(--c-svg, currentColor)\" d=\"M20 20v-6.371a3.92 3.92 0 0 0-3.919-3.919c-1.022 0-2.212.625-2.789 1.563V9.938H9.938V20h3.354v-5.926c0-.926.746-1.683 1.671-1.683a1.683 1.683 0 0 1 1.683 1.683V20zM6.032 8.051a2.02 2.02 0 0 0 2.02-2.02A2.026 2.026 0 0 0 6.031 4 2.03 2.03 0 0 0 4 6.032c0 1.118.914 2.02 2.032 2.02ZM7.702 20V9.938h-3.33V20z\"\/><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Linkedin<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"event-speakers-modal__speaker-description\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMarco is a founding partner at Big Pi Ventures, an Athens based VC founded in 2018, investing in exceptional teams who want to become global tech leaders.
