Applications now open for second Accenture Fintech Innovation Lab
Consider yourself a fintech entrepreneur with cutting-edge technology to develop? Then get your application together for Accenture’s latest Fintech Innovation Lab by 30 October.
Announced yesterday, 8 October, during the Startup Gathering, online applications are now open for the second Fintech Innovation Lab Dublin which will start on January, 2016.
The fintech start-up accelerator is led by Accenture and supported by major finance players Allied Irish Bank, Bank of Ireland, Citi, Fexco, State Street, Realex Payments, Ulster Bank and Credit Suisse, as well as tech giant Google.
Early-stage start-ups from Ireland developing leading-edge technologies for the financial services sector are invited to apply online for a place on this 12-week mentoring programme.
Only six companies will be selected for the programme, which will accelerate product development and give these start-ups exposure to C-level financial industry executives.
The accelerator will culminate with two ‘investor days’ – one in Dublin and one in London – where the entrepreneurs will get the chance to pitch to an audience of venture capitalists and financial industry executives.
