Our meetups are not only creating interesting content but also will give you the opportunity to meet attendees of different backgrounds. It does not matter if you want to have the chance to speak to the speakers or representatives of banks, consultancy firms or other startups. You will meet them for sure! In this occasion, we are creating a really special event, not only because it will be a great way to close the Amsterdam Fintech Week, but also because for this Meetup, NVB and Holland Fintech, are partnering with Beyond Banking, an event and hackathon that aim to create new perspectives on banking. Just as important is the regulatory framework fostering innovation on the one hand and providing customer protection on the other. And not less important, consumers need to adopt new innovations. Which problem does an innovation solve and is it powerful enough to make consumers switch their current providers? While challengers may offer superior solutions for some customers, attracting a broad customer base remains a challenge. As incumbents still have the benefit of trust and scale, it is hard for new entrants to gain enough traction.
