CELEBRATING LGBTQ (+Allies) DIVERSITY IN FINTECH

In celebration of LGBT History Month in the UK and Black History Month in the US, we are pleased to invite you to join us for an evening to celebrate diverse voices in the FinTech industry.

The importance of FinTech in the UK can not be understated, as a recent report from EY reveals that this industry employs more than 61,000 individuals in the UK, generating £6.6bn in revenue in 2015. This positions the UK as the leading FinTech ecosystem, closely followed by California and New York.

The primary objective of this event is to bring together people from the LGBTQ (+Allies) community and celebrate diversity in the UK FinTech landscape. Panel members will discuss their role in enabling diversity in the FinTech industry while sharing their experiences on the challenges and opportunities they face in everyday work life. #DiversityinFintech
