Shaun Quincey

Shaun Quincey’s life is a testament to overcoming extreme challenges and pioneering new frontiers. As the only person to row solo from Australia to New Zealand, he mirrored the epic feat of his father, Colin Quincey, who completed the same journey in reverse in 1977.

Shaun’s 54-day solo voyage through some of the world’s most dangerous waters tested his limits, ultimately securing his place in adventure lore.

Transitioning from extreme adventuring to business, Shaun carried the same resilience into the tech world.

As the founder of Genoapay, he reshaped the payment solutions industry, with the company valued at nearly $10 million within six months of launch. After its acquisition by Latitude, Shaun led its expansion across Australia as General Manager of LatitudePay.

His entrepreneurial journey continued with key leadership roles at Icehouse Ventures and PayLeadr before co-founding Simfuni, where he currently serves as CEO.

He now shares his experiences inspiring audiences to embrace challenges, develop resilience, and thrive under pressure.
