Good stuff Samarth Shekhar! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts coming out of the event.
Great to be back at Finovate Europe, our favorite showcase of the latest and greatest in #FinTech. Of the ?Class of 2025“ on the demo stage this year, quite a few themes that are on our radar: - SMB/ commercial banking, lending & payments (esp. cross-border) - id, fraud esp. scams, privacy - financial literacy/ PFM / wellbeing/ investments (esp. retirement savings and home buying) - capital markets (of course, with co-pilots!), and the rise and rise of real-world asset tokenization - customer acquisition / engagement / UI & analytics - KYB / KYC / regulatory compliance / risk management As always, plenty of shuttling between meetings, booths and demos and soaking in the views, but as specialist B2B FinTech & InsurTech investors, if you are a startup building in the above areas (and I haven‘t already tracked you down at the event!) drop me a line / connect via LinkedIn! Check out the full line-up here: https://lnkd.in/gYsdd42a

90's pop music. ?? ?? That guilty pleasure was quite possibly the last thing we thought we'd hear from equipifi's Bryce Deeney during the very first of our #FounderFriday sessions. ?? Jokes aside...it was great to catch up with Bryce. His story of perseverance, grit, and determination is not only worth the listen, it's also a shining example of the qualities we look for in all of our founders. Congrats on all of the success so far, Bryce. We're pumped to be a part of equipifi's journey as you revolutionize #BNPL for banks and credit unions. ?? Grab some ?? popcorn ?? and check out the full episode here ?? https://lnkd.in/g_wPQKhF

The Financial Services industry is at a crossroads... ??? On one hand...it's becoming increasingly difficult to recruit new Advisors. In fact, McKinsey & Company is estimating a talent shortage of over 100k by 2034. ?? On the other...current Advisors are being tasked with managing larger books of business AND providing bespoke, wholistic advice to their clients. ?? So, what's the solve? ?? #AI. and, specifically, AI tailor-made for the specific needs of the Financial Services industry and their Advisors. That's why we're proud investors in CogniCor Technologies, who's North Star is to help financial services firms ? streamline their operations ? reduce administrative burden ? build deeper, more meaningful relationships with their clients We can't wait for Sindhu Joseph to join us for a couple of days here in #STL. See you soon! ??

Whew! It was a whirlwind trip to snowy #NYC ??♂??? Atul Kamra and Douglas W. spent the last few days meeting with LPs, Portfolio Co's, and ecosystem partners as we continue to foster collaboration and innovation across the financial services industry. The icing on the cake? ?? Spending the afternoon with our good friends at World Wide Technology, sharing the macro trends we're tracking and the impact they will have on Insurance Carriers and other Financial Services firms.

Your Health ?? Your Wealth ?? Your Security ?? Three pillars that are near and dear to our heart and a core component of our investment thesis. Our own Andrew Wegrzyn travelled to Cincinnati this week to see these three themes colliding in real time at Cintrifuse Capital's Health Tech Demo night. From Andrew: "it was thrilling to see compelling marrying together AI and large datasets into practical use across the healthcare spectrum, and to hear from innovation leaders at Cincinnati Children's about how health technology is reaching physicians, care givers, and patients to elevate their level of care."

Great work Samarth Shekhar!
Last month, Samarth and I were invited to consult with the European Commission's Directorate General for Financial Stability, Financial Services and Capital Markets Union (DG FISMA) on proposals for the EU's Capital Markets Union (CMU). Despite the complexity of the theme, we had a productive discussion with the DG FISMA delegation. The themes we discussed 1?? Single European Capital Market To compete globally, Europe needs greater market integration. A true single market must be: ?? Attractive (e.g., simple, competitive tax system) ?? Effective (unified rules and regulations, e.g., single AML/KYC framework) ?? Efficient (convenient, low-cost access) ?? Example: One KYC regulation valid across the EU. 2?? Reduced Bureaucracy New regulations (e.g. DORA) should only be introduced when existing ones are decommissioned or significantly simplified (e.g., by >80%). 3?? Pan-European Regulatory Sandbox We explored the possibility of DG FISMA creating a pan-European regulatory sandbox to support early-stage fintech companies. ?? We also discussed potential "Lighthouse Projects" ?? A common European stock exchange ?? A "Tokenized European Company SE light" (valid across Europe, enabling investment from all Europeans and global investors using digital EUR) The DG FISMA delegation was very receptive, asked many questions, and expressed interest in the "Lighthouse Project" concept. They will be consulting with all EU member states to gather further input. ???? Thank you to everyone who supported us in preparing for the consultation. The FinTech Forum is eager to contribute our expertise and develop concrete proposals. Samarth Shekhar FinTech Forum #europe #europeancommission #eu #ec #fisma #cmu #fintech
