Pitching opportunity – Jersey Finance

20 Sep 2024

Pitching opportunity - Jersey Finance

techUK's FS Programme has been working with Jersey Finance - the trade association for finance on the island, to help bring technological solutions to their members. As a result, we've been able to secure eight places for techUK member firms to pitch at their Demo Day in November. Now in its 5th year, Jersey Finance's Demo Day provides their members with the opportunity to hear first-hand about cutting edge technology and the latest tools that are available to support both their FinTech and ESG-focussed ambitions. It is one of their biggest events they hold locally, with around 150 attendees in the audience.

Their members are particularly interested in solutions concerning Sustainable Finance, cybersecurity and operational resilience solutions, third-party risk management, tokenisation of real-world assets, KYC/Compliance solutions.

For those eight tech companies selected by Jersey Finance, attendance will be free, although you would need to fund your own travel/accommodation.

To express your interest, please complete your details on this form and we will be in touch. For more information, please see the PDF here.
