When the sixth annual Fintech & Funding Conference and Expo kicks off this spring, the premier event will be setting the stage for some of fintech’s best and brightest to shine. Co-hosted by the National Crowdfunding & Fintech Association (NCFA Canada) and Toronto Finance International (TFI), the must-attend conference provides a forum where pioneers and innovators alike can share new ideas and insight with the fintech community. The gathering is also designed to catalyze and facilitate crucial relationships between entrepreneurs, investors and major financial stakeholders. Over the years, FFCON has turned out to be one of Canada’s top tech networking forums, and FFCON20 promises to be no different. The event, to be held in Toronto, March 23-24, 2020, will implement the theme ‘RISE’.
This year, FFCON20 RISE is more than just a conference. In addition to its informative and educational features, the conference and expo will include a series of ancillary events, including the 2020 Fintech Draft, the 14-Day Cardless Wallet Challenge, the 29-Day Altcoin Trading Challenge and the RISE Expo.
The 2020 Fintech Draft is modeled on the league drafts of major sports such as baseball, basketball and football. It is meant to identify and feature emerging and high-growth fintech start-ups and scale-ups. Qualifying fintech draft participants will be entered in one of three Fintech Draft competitions – Pitching, Export Readiness and Product Demo – and finalists will compete in front of a live audience at FFCON20: RISE. In addition to gaining valuable exposure to investors, media, prospective buyers and partners, finalists stand a chance of winning a prize. They will also have their profiles hosted online, where they can be evaluated by expert fintech scouts.
The 14-day Cardless Wallet Challenge offers an introduction to a completely digital world. For a whole two weeks, participants must try to use only their mobile devices for daily transactions. The 29-day Alt-coin Trading Challenge provides participants an opportunity to explore and compete in crypto trading in a riskless simulated environment, with winners receiving prizes, and the RISE Exhibitor Expo provides emerging companies with the ability to showcase their innovations, give demos and interact with the diverse range of attendees.
