WELCOME
3#H2EXPO
Welcome to our third annual H2 Fintech Expo.
This is the first public demonstration of the third cohort of startups graduating the H2 Fintech Accelerator.
Today you will have an opportunity to hear from 13 diverse and engaging startups as they pitch their products to you; and you will have the opportunity to meet with them afterwards and find out more about their products and plans.
The day will include two compelling panels: the first will consider the future of insurance; and the second will look forward at fintech and innovation. We have some fantastic panelists and we are excited to hear their views.
We will end the day with a fireside chat with David Koch, a good friend to many in the fintech community.
We hope you enjoy the programme.
