Fintech Week Germany internationalises its successful FinForward conference
Fintech Week Germany is bringing back FinForward its very own international fintech conference in 2019. After a successful first run in 2018, the second edition of this event will happen on 7th November during this year’s Fintech Week in Hamburg, Germany.
The main difference is that the conference is set up entirely in English this year as the organisers are looking to internationalise both the format and the entire week. But ins- tead of looking to the most talked about markets such as the UK and the US, FinFor- ward will focus on two special aspects:
- The Scandinavian and Baltic markets both of which are rapidly becoming some of
Europe’s top fintech hubs, boasting hundreds of exciting financial startups, and
- The German market, its potential and possible hurdles for startups looking to enter.
The latter is clearly represented in this year’s theme, “Don’t Be Afraid Of German Angst”. With this theme, FinForward is looking to broach the issue of “German Angst”, a term that stands for Germans often purported reluctance to embrace change, what this means for local companies and how expanding business from the rest of Europe can help Germany to overcome this.
Speakers from Sweden, Latvia, the UK, Russia and Germany and further afield will meet to shine a light on different facets of Europe’s fintech market. Anyone interested in par- ticipating in FinForward can apply as a speaker or recommend someone: The Call for Speakers is still open. Alternatively, you can grab your ticket at finforward.eu today!
