Opportunities in the FinTech Strategic Space

RSVP's are now closed for this event. We have a limited number of tickets on the door at £10/cash for latecomers.

Hi Everyone,

Our October event will focus on opportunities in the FinTech Strategic space. Where is the pain, what does the strategic space look like, who is already targeting it, and where are the opportunities for FinTech Entrepreneurs?

We're inviting speakers to discuss the space and their needs from FinTech, we will also provide our latest report which includes some very interesting FinTech Market Intelligence, mapping out the players and opportunities so you can get an up to date view of the space. If you're looking to enter the FinTech space then this will be invaluable to you.

There will of course be the usual networking opportunities, and a buffet and refreshments are included at the start.

We will also video the session 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.

CASS/City Students - we currently have a number of free tickets available for current Cass and City students, please join the group using your Cass/City email and then message Eddie if you want one.
