Adopter has joined a new steering group formed following the North East FinTech Strategy Report. The group aims to accelerate the North East as a region for fintech innovation.
What is the North East FinTech Strategy?
A new regional growth strategy was developed by Whitecap Consulting in response to a national strategic review of FinTech. It identified the opportunity to create more than 2,000 new jobs in the North East by the end of 2025.
The North East FinTech Steering Group was formed and meets monthly to execute the priorities laid out in the Strategy Report.
The group aims to establish clear leadership and increase collaboration to grow the North East’s fintech cluster.
What does this news mean for Adopter?
Being a member of the steering group will allow us to support the growth of the region’s fintech landscape.
It will also allow us to engage with some of the best fintech academics and business leaders in the region and build our expertise in green-tech adoption within the financial sector.
“We are looking forward to joining FinTech North’s steering group in our region”. It will give us the opportunity to contribute to the growth of fintech, which we believe to be one of the most exciting sectors for green-tech adoption.” - Katherine Keddie (Co-Founder of Adopter).
