About this Event

FinTech North is delighted to invite you to the official launch event of the North of England FinTech Innovation Challenge, our pan-Northern programme designed to connect ambitious FinTech innovators with established financial services organisations to tackle real-world industry challenges.

The Innovation Challenge has been created to help accelerate collaboration between FinTechs and financial institutions across the North, providing a platform for emerging technologies, new ideas and practical solutions that can help shape the future of financial services.

On the 29th April, we're excited to launch the programme alonsgide NatWest, our challenge sponsors, who will be introducing their challenge area and outlining how participating FinTechs will engage with their experts, mentors and decision-makers throughout the programme.

During the event, a selection of innovative FinTech firms will present their solutions and ideas in response to the challenge theme, followed by interactive discussions and Q&A with the audience.

This session will bring together FinTech founders, financial services leaders, investors, ecosystem partners and innovators from across the Northern FinTech community, creating space for meaningful conversations, collaboration and new opportunities.

Alongside the pitch sessions, attendees will also have the chance to network with peers across the ecosystem, explore potential partnerships and learn more about how to get involved in the Innovation Challenge as the programme progresses.
