The FinTech Innovation Lab was an over the top experience that is continuing to pay dividends well after the program. It is like a TSA Pre-Check lane for early stage Fintech companies; a fast track through the long cycle of engaging with large Financial Institutions.

The Fintech Innovation Lab provided a catalyst for our insurance market penetration. The successes from the lab, both financial and operational, led to the strategic development of an internal insurtech team at StrongArm Tech. Bringing in various support from the insurtech community, through the Fintech Innovation Lab, allowed us to leverage new ways to recruit support and resources that help the lives of Industrial Athletes

The Fintech Lab was a really valuable experience. We met with people at the top Financial Institutions and refined our product offering. What would have taken us years, we were able to achieve in a few short months. Highly recommended.

The Fintech innovation Lab helped us learn and refine our product for the insurance market. The program gave us the "at bat" we needed to hit it out of the park.

A major obstacle for technology firms is getting in front of the right people at banks and even knowing who those people are. This was true for OpenFin despite our extensive experience and deep ties in the financial industry. The FinTech Innovation Lab allowed us to find people who are virtually unfindable and exposed us to opportunities that would otherwise be very difficult to come by. The three month program accelerated our customer development effort by at least 12-18 months.

The Fintech Innovation Lab was transformative to our business and forged relationships with the largest of Financial Institutions to a level that would have taken years. We highly recommend anybody selling into or working with financial institutions to get into highly competitive program.

Fintech was a true game-changer in our ability to work with financial service companies. It catalyzed both our client and product development process. The speed and facility with which we were able to get meeting with C-level executives was astounding. Fintech gave us great creditability and legitimacy as the banks knew we were chosen out of a much larger pool of startups by their peers. We were given a level of insight into the sales and product development process. We went from being treated defensively as just another startup with an untested idea to being treated as partners who could be given very candid yet constructive feedback. It was truly a game-changer.

Graduating from the Fintech Innovation Lab represents an inflection point for our business. We have new clients, new advisors, new strategies and even a second product line. The 12 week program has fast-forwarded our company 12 months; we are now part of an ecosystem of startups, financial institutions, mentors and investors that will keep accelerating us into the future. For fintech startups and the financial institutions that want to connect with them – I cannot recommend this program highly enough.
