About The Program
The FinTech Innovation Lab is a 12-week program taking place during the summer of every year. Through a competitive process, we select six companies to enter the program every year, who receive:
- Mentoring from the participating financial firms, VCs and the Lab's Entrepreneurs Network
- Senior access to relevant user groups at the financial firms for product feedback and potential deployment of proofs-of-concept
- Manhattan workspace and $25,000, available at the company's option. The Lab will also take a small warrant coverage in each of the six companies
Each selected company will also participate in a Leadership Program, consisting of weekly events such as:
- Meetings with senior business executives, investors, and experienced entrepreneurs
- Workshops and panel discussions on issues relevant to financial technology companies, such as procurement, proofs-of-concept, technology architecture, bank regulation, and broader industry trends
At the conclusion of the program, each of the six companies will present at a Demo Day, where dozens of bank executives, investors, and press will be in attendance. For more information on the FinTech Innovation Lab's 2012 Demo Day, please read the coverage from Inc and PandoDaily.
