Hi Everyone,

NewFinance is a FinTech Meetup for Entrepreneurs, Technologists, Professionals, Investors, and everyone interested in FinTech Innovation. We also video our events so if you can't make it please catch us on the NewFinance YouTube Channel (http://www.youtube.com/londonnewfinance).

This is the second of our six month New York FinTech Seminar series where we'll be exploring the hottest topics in FinTech in our proven Seminar format:

Month 1 - February 11th - Bitcoin (https://www.meetup.com/newfinance/events/161062672/)

Month 2 - March 11th - Payments

Month 3 - April 15th - Cloud

Month 4 - May 13th - Analytics & Big Data

Month 5 - June 10th - Investment Information

Month 6 - July 15th - Startup Funding

Payments is not only a hot topic but receives the most investment of any class of FinTech Startup, so we'd like to explore some of the rapidly developing themes around the subject and the latest developments, the key players and their offerings.

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 (https://www.meetup.com/newfinance/about/) from our previous seminars and here to see the photos. (https://www.meetup.com/newfinance/photos/)
