What does 30 years of success actually look like?

For Paysafe, part of the answer is right here in Bulgaria 🇧🇬

We're proud to celebrate Paysafe's 30th anniversary and the company's long-standing contribution to the Bulgarian tech ecosystem. From shaping global fintech products to building generations of local talent, Paysafe's journey is a powerful example of what happens when a company truly invests in its people and its home market.

Because as Giacomo Austin, GM of Paysafe Bulgaria, put it — success today isn't just about scale. It's about trust, quality, and the culture that sustains it.

In this article, we explore:
🚀 How Bulgaria evolved from a founding location into one of Paysafe's most strategic global hubs
🤝 Why people and culture are at the heart of their competitive advantage
🌱 What responsible innovation looks like — from AI adoption to long-term talent development

At Women Who Grow - Sofia, we believe Bulgaria's tech ecosystem is full of exactly this kind of talent. And we love seeing companies that recognize and invest in it.

Congratulations to Paysafe on 30 years of impact — and to the teams in Bulgaria helping shape the next chapter!

🤯 Зоната ти на комфорт е една голяма заблуда... 😵‍💫

На събитието „Mindset to Move“ 👩🏼 Temenuzhka Zlateva, VP Merchant Onboarding & Operations в Paysafe, ще ни разкаже за своя професионален път и нагласата, която ѝ е помогнала да бъде подготвена за промените 🚀 и растежа в кариерата 📈.

🥸 Чрез примери от реалния живот ще проследим връзката между растежа, уязвимостта и куража да продължаваш напред въпреки предизвикателствата 🫸🏼 🛑. От малките стъпки без ясна посока до осъзнаването, че „не знам“ не е проява на слабост 😔, а знак за изграждане на увереност, която те води напред 😁.

Събитието е безплатно, но изисква предварителна регистрация: линк в коментар.

📅 Ден: 11-и юни
🕒 Час: 18:30 ч.

💬 Most companies talk about ethics after something goes wrong.

Gergana Dimitrova has spent 20+ years making sure it never gets to that point.

As Director of Global Compliance at Paysafe, she's navigated regulatory exams, AML frameworks, and the kind of decisions that don't have easy answers. She's also quietly mentored a generation of women who are now leaders across the industry.

In her conversation with us, she said something that really stuck:
"Don't treat ethics or compliance as something you add later — build them into your product, your decisions, and your culture from day one."

And on AI in financial services — she's direct: producing outcomes isn't enough anymore. Businesses will need to show how those outcomes were reached, and prove they are fair, consistent, and explainable.

A genuinely great read for anyone working in tech, leading a team, or just curious about where things are heading. 👇
