#161-Cormac-Quinn-Blog-Photo.jpg

Cormac Quinn is the founder of loyalBe: a bank-connected rewards app aimed at helping independent retailers to attract and retain customers. 

The most impressive part is that before their recent investment, the Ormeau Baths based tech startup was built from the ground up by Cormac himself.  

Before loyalBe he was a Software Engineer at Kainos, where he worked as part of a small team to build the UK MOT Reminders website - which is now being used by more than 1m people. Along the way, he’s also had the opportunity to work for American Express, Infosys and MSA Security.  

In today’s show, we talk about the loyalBe origin story, what it means to be loyal and how Cormac used his time at university to springboard into success.  

All this and more, coming up in this week’s conversation.
