Details
It is clear from our community surveys that ESG and Green Finance is something our community are really interested in. With our recent conferences and events, we have found ourselves speaking more and more about Financial Inclusion, the Environment, and ethical Finance. We have reflected this with recent panels focusing on Financial Inclusion, Female Investors and Entrepreneurship and Sustainability. Beyond Northern FinTech, across the global FinTech market we are seeing more and more ‘Better FinTechs’, i.e. FinTech propositions aiming to positively impact people and purpose. Anecdotally we have heard this described as a ‘second wave’ of FinTechs, following a ‘first wave’ consisting of challengers who aimed to disrupt the market with innovative business models and customer centric user experiences.
Indeed, much of this trend is investor led, with funders and PE firms wanting to see green and ethical elements woven into the fabric of businesses from the start. That’s not to mention consumers, who are increasingly expecting more ethical choices and decisions from their financial services providers.
• At this event, we will ask:
- What are the market trends?
- What are the challenges for entrepreneurs and investors?
- Who are the North’s most exciting ethical FinTechs?
