Adopter speaks at Fintech North Conference

Our Co-founder Katherine Keddie launched the UK’s first map of green-tech investors during her pitch at Fintech North’s Newcastle Conference 2024. 

The conference is renowned for bringing together leading minds from across the North East’s fintech sector. It was a great opportunity for Adopter to showcase our new resource to an expert audience of fintech pioneers, including Atom Bank and Innovate Finance.  

In her pitch, Kat emphasised that the tech solutions to the world’s biggest climate and nature challenges already exist and just need adoption. To address this, we’ve launched the UK’s first comprehensive map of green-tech investors.

This map is a strategic tool aimed at connecting green-tech innovators with 50+ investors who specialise in scaling their solutions. These investors provide more than just capital - they offer the expertise and networks to turn promising tech into impactful solutions.

The map forms part of our growing bank of free resources designed to support the wider green-tech community. As Kat illustrated, we’re creating these tools because we’re committed to acting on what green-tech innovators need to help accelerate their journey.

She commended the conference, saying, “Thank you to Fintech North for hosting such a brilliant event! It was a great opportunity to launch the first map of UK green-tech investors and hear about the strides being made in the North East to support a more sustainable and inclusive financial system.”
