Our Story. Building the world’s leading fintech ecosystem, since 2014.
Founded in 2014, FINTECH Circle set out to build the world’s first dedicated fintech ecosystem: a single community connecting the entrepreneurs building financial services’ future with investors ("builders and backers") and clients. More than a decade on, that community has grown into a global network of 260,000+ fintech entrepreneurs, investors, finance professionals and board members across 100+ countries, anchored by Europe’s first fintech-focused Investor Network, the bestselling FINTECH Book Series published Wiley, four ITN co-produced documentaries, and the world’s first fintech-specific Board Programme.
