Hi all,

We are organising our monthly Fintech Meetup where we'll discuss everything banking, fintech and startups!

Focus&Topics

From idea to product - How to build a successful fintech company

In our 4th Fintech Meetup we will focus on the core of modern startups - the product. We will invite experts to ask them how they managed to turn crazy ideas into real life products, how they knew they were building the right product and what their major struggles looked like.

The goal is to share real life examples from professionals who build and grew product in the past, around the topics of:

  1. The Idea - understanding, research and testing

  2. The Product - process, development, testing,

  3. The Market - Test, sell and define the go-to-market activities

Style of Meetup

99% Chances are that this meetup will happen virtually on Zoom.

We'll be having a panel/round table discussion. We'll try to keep it informal, like a bar atmosphere where we'll discuss the topics. We don't stick to a strict agenda.

Q&A questions can be asked by the crowd after 45 minutes. We will also post a form to submit anonymous Q&A in the next days.

If you have any other topic you want to cover, please let us know!
