This event is a pilot event for a new service that we’re developing to help FinTech Entrepreneurs get their companies funded.
If you’re a FinTech company looking for funding then you will definitely want to pitch at this event. You’ll get exposure to our Investor Members not only at the event but globally via the videos that we produce and syndicate to all Chapters
We’re bringing together Entrepreneurs and Investors in a Lightning pitch (3 minutes timed, no questions) format so that you may connect with potential investors.
The event is open to all FinTech companies, please drop one of the Organisers a line if you’d like a slot.
We’ll be videoing the session as usual for those of you who are unable to attend. You may click here to watch the videos from our previous seminars and here to see the photos
