Nordic Fintech Snippets – October 2022

Nordic Fintech Snippets – October

Welcome to our monthly industry review.

Entering November, means that Slush is just around the corner. As usual, fintech will be one of the main topics at Slush, and around it.

Fintech Farm, together with our partners, will be hosting the legendary Helsinki Fintech Pool on the 17th, and the official fintech side-event of Slush FINTECH & IMPACT: BORN FOR THIS MOMENT by Mastercard Lighthouse is held on the 18th.

In December we will be focusing a bit more on banking at the Digital Finance Forum.

Below you can find the industry insights, including funding rounds, partnerships, acquisitions and new launches.

You can find all the monthly Nordic Fintech Snippets from the past over here.
