Fintech Fringe Launches Scale&Grow – The Expert-Led Consultancy to Supercharge Fintech Growth

Fintech Fringe has launched Scale&Grow, a fintech-first consultancy built to help later-stage fintechs (Series A+) scale smarter, faster, and more efficiently. Unlike traditional consulting models, Scale&Grow offers radical transparency and direct access to industry experts—cutting out unnecessary costs and unlocking practical, high-impact support for scaling businesses.

Scaling beyond Series A is one of the toughest phases for fintechs. Industry data shows that one-third of startups fail after raising Series A, and fintechs face even steeper challenges—with up to 75% of investor-backed fintechs ultimately failing. Key obstacles include securing follow-on investment, navigating complex regulations, building commercial traction, and expanding into new markets.

Scale&Grow fills a critical gap by giving fintechs direct access to industry leaders who have built, scaled, and exited successful businesses. With a transparent, execution-first model, Scale&Grow provides fintechs with the specialist expertise needed to drive commercial traction, secure investment, and achieve sustainable growth—without the inefficiencies of traditional consulting.

The Scale&Grow advisory team is composed of some of the most respected leaders in fintech, each bringing unparalleled expertise to supporting scaling businesses:

  • Alison Donnelly – Director at fscom | Regulation & Compliance Specialist
  • Chris Hill – Partner at Fox Williams | Fintech Legal & Regulatory Specialist
  • Alex Reed – Co-founder of Mountside Ventures | Fundraising & VC Strategy
  • Nadia Edwards-Dashti – Co-founder of Harrington Starr | Talent & Operations Specialist
  • Angela Yore – CEO of SkyParlour | Fintech PR & Marketing
  • Thomas Wells – Director at Frazier Deeter | US Accounting & Tax Expert
  • Karen Allan – Partner at HaysMac – UK Accounting & Tax Experts
  • Tamara Gillan – CEO Ffinc – Female Entrepreneurship

Together, these industry veterans will provide fintechs with the hands-on support and strategic insights they need to navigate the complexities of scaling successfully.

Calypso Harland, Founder of Fintech Fringe & Scale&Grow, commented: “Scaling shouldn’t come with unnecessary costs or inefficiencies. Scale&Grow delivers exactly what fintechs need—expert execution, commercial traction, and sustainable growth strategies—without inflated fees or wasted time. We’ve built a fintech-first model that connects scaling businesses directly with proven industry specialists, ensuring they get the right expertise at the right time, at a fair market rate.”

Angela Yore, CEO of SkyParlour and Scale&Grow advisor, added: “Scaling a business is one of the most exhilarating yet complex journeys a founder can take. Scale&Grow removes the hurdles by providing direct access to experts who have been through it before. Whether it’s securing investment, navigating regulations, or building a standout brand, fintech’s need real, practical support. This consultancy is a game-changer for ambitious fintech’s ready to accelerate their growth with confidence.”
