<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>DIVE INTO THE GREAT WIDE OPEN <p/>Young. Hungry. Visionary. Chris Zadeh saw a future few could ever imagine possible. When he presented his idea--coding a new core banking engine in the cloud--bankers laughed. They scoffed. Then they rejected his revolutionary idea outright. They said, <p/>"The cloud's not safe." <p/>"Who do you think you are--telling us how to run our banks?" <p/>"And who the hell is ever going to put a bank on the cloud?" <p/>Chris Zadeh and his team of underdogs knew the answer: everyone. They also knew the cloud wasn't just safe, it was the future of banking. And more than anything, he knew exactly who he and his team were: they were Ohpen, the first software company in the world to put a bank on the cloud. <p/>Together, this band of brothers harnessed their give-it-all mentality, fighting spirit, and bold vision to change how the world banks. In this surprising, unfiltered, outstandingly told story, <i>Banking the Cloud</i> takes the reader on an epic journey--from thrill of discovery, to the devastation of defeat, and to an exhilarating and last-minute rally that changed everything. <p/>This is a remarkable tale of what it takes to innovate, survive, and ultimately win no matter what the obstacle. You'll find it impossible to put this book down.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>A story for the ages that reminds dreamers, innovators, and entrepreneurs the world over what it really takes to do the impossible. <p/>Chris Zadeh didn't have it easy. From the outset he was an outsider, a renegade, a rebel. He wasn't your typical banker's banker. In early 2008, he and his friends at the international bank where they worked had a crazy idea. What if they stopped fixing problems to core banking engines and built a totally new one? And not just any core banking engine--the best one in the world? And even crazier still, what if they put this core banking engine on the cloud? <p/>Defying all the odds that were stacked against them--the countless rejections, the naysayers, and the nonbelievers--Zadeh, his best friend, Matthijs Aler, and their genius team of tech whizzes and cofounders, set out to do what had never been done before. And in the process, they exceeded everyone's expectations, including their own. <p/>Be prepared to dive into the depths of the unknown and make extraordinary discoveries along with Zadeh and Aler as they tell their exceptional story of how they changed the banking world forever in <i>Banking the Cloud</i>.
