Countless studies over the last decade have highlighted the gender disparity in Financial Services and FinTech is not immune from this lack of balanced representation.
Other groups are far better place to address some of the challenges such as the gender pay gap, lack of flexible working and general cultural issues (we’re looking at you Silicon Valley).
At Next Money, we know the best way to work toward balance in the FinTech market place: highlight the inspirational leaders in the field who prove that despite the challenges, success is in reach in FinTech.
We’ve gathered three fantastic leaders from within the FinTech ecosystem to tackle a range of topics including raising capital, regulation, and the best ways to accelerate the growth of FinTech businesses. All these elements are universal to FinTech founders but often come with additional challenges for underrepresented demographics. The panelists have diverse histories and we’re looking forward to hearing their thoughts on what can be done to improve the Middle East’s already burgeoning FinTech ecosystem.
