FinTech West
FinTech West is the representative body for Fintech in the South West region and part of the FinTech National Network hosted by Innovate Finance.
We are a not for profit organisation with core objectives to:
- connect and inform the FinTech community in the South West
- promote the South West as a FinTech centre of excellence and help develop the sector
- add value to and help generate regional economic benefit
- align to the development of the national FinTech sector
The community consists of over 1400 people across the region involved and interested in FinTech. FinTech West works alongside a wide variety of organisations including FinTechs and related tech firms, accelerators and incubators, financial and professional services, universities, colleges and schools, investors and funding bodies and public sector organisations.
We showcase the South West while engaging across the UK with sister organisations within the FinTech National Network and partners such as Innovate Finance, TISA tech, the Investment Association, DIT and so on. Speakers and attendees at events include banks and other financial institutions, technology providers, policy makers, advisers and suppliers to the FS and tech sectors, FinTech entrepreneurs, academics, funders, and investors.
We connect with an incredibly diverse community and range of job roles, we don’t charge for membership and all are welcome to get involved whether just attending events of interest, seeking advice, searching for funding or looking for support. We rely on donations, sponsorship and the active support of those who give up their valuable time to help progress FinTech for all.
