FinTech North is delighted to announce its sixth-annual Manchester Conference, hosted in partnership with NCC Group Software Resilience, Mastercard and The University of Manchester, set to take place at Whitworth Hall in Central Manchester, this November 14th.

We can’t wait to bring together FinTech leaders and entrepreneurs from across the North for a celebration of everything excellent about the Greater Manchester FinTech ecosystem!

We’ll hear about national and regional developments in Fintech, as well as keynotes from Mastercard, NCC Group Software Resilience, GFT, Barclays Eagle Labs and many more. We will also be hosting thought-provoking panel-discussions and our trade mark FinTech showcase to profile the region’s exciting start-ups and scale-ups.

At the conference, we’ll be covering Trust in FinTech and Financial Services – a theme that has cropped up at many a FinTech North event, and one that we’ve wanted to cover in great detail for a while – which is why we’re delighted to be working with world leading software resilience providers, NCC Group Software Resilience as headline sponsors.

We’ll address Trust in FinTech and Financial Services through multiple perspectives, including:

• Consumer Duty; a higher standard of consumer protection in financial services, implemented in July 2023 – What does this mean for you and your organisation? How best can you adapt?
• Addressing customer centricity
• Operational Resilience; similarly with consumer duty – if your organisation gets it wrong, there can be serious consequences – what more could you be doing?
• Vulnerability
• Insurance and InsurTech
• ID Verification
• Cyber security
• What role does AI play?
