Meet Cassius Wright
Founder & Chief Financial StrategistAfter spending twelve years navigating volatile markets at Deutsche Bank's London office, Cassius discovered something unsettling. Most retail investors were making the same budgeting mistakes he'd seen countless times — mistakes that could be avoided with proper education. In early 2024, he left traditional banking to create something different: a platform where financial literacy isn't just theory, but practical skills people can actually use. His approach combines rigorous market analysis with straightforward teaching, because he believes everyone deserves access to the financial knowledge that was once reserved for institutional clients.

Cordelia Hayes
Head of Educational Development
Cordelia spent seven years designing curriculum for adult learners at Warwick Business School before joining us in 2025. She has this remarkable ability to break down complex financial concepts into digestible lessons that stick. Her background in cognitive psychology helps her understand how people actually learn about money — not just how we think they should learn.
Research & Content Team
Educational Resource Development
Our content development team includes former financial advisors, behavioral economists, and educational technology specialists. They work together to create resources that reflect real market conditions and genuine learning principles. Every module goes through extensive testing with actual learners before it reaches our platform — because theoretical perfection means nothing if it doesn't work in practice.
Why We Do This Work
Most financial education feels disconnected from reality — filled with jargon and theoretical scenarios that don't match what people actually face. We started Novasummitadv because we wanted to create something honest: education that acknowledges both the opportunities and genuine risks of financial decision-making.
Our approach isn't about promising miraculous returns or oversimplifying complex topics. Instead, we focus on building practical skills that help you make informed decisions with your own financial situation. Whether that's understanding how compound interest actually works in real market conditions, or learning to create budgets that account for life's unpredictability — we're here to provide education, not empty promises.
We believe financial literacy should be accessible, practical, and grounded in reality. That's what drives everything we create, from our foundational courses launching in September 2025 to the ongoing resources we develop based on what our community actually needs.
