Finnotec 2018

The pullman, Auckland

29 Nov

The 2018 event, NZ Fintech Summit, was organised by Finnotec in collaboration with Fintech NZ. Over 200 attendees convened at The Pullman to hear from and mingle with about 25 speakers and presenters with attendees being treated to a smorgasbord of inspiring fintech ideas, entrepreneurs and products.

Topics covered ranged from applications of blockchain and artificial intelligence, peer-to-peer lending, intellectual property strategies, to how to go about exporting your fintech ideas, scaling globally and many other areas. The day was rounded off by an international panel from the US, Hong Kong and Latin America taking attendees on a global tour of fintech. Networking opportunities were a-plenty over lunch and evening drinks and canapés.

Here are some moments captured on the day.
