August 31, 2018 in Fintech, United States
We’re excited to announce the twelve startups participating in our upcoming venture development program, Fintech US 2018. Each one of these startups is harnessing financial data to make financial services more accessible, affordable, and transparent.
The program is the latest in our global collaboration with PayPal to support entrepreneurs working to make financial services affordable and accessible (learn more about that collaboration here). The program is also sponsored by BNY Mellon, a financial services firm with over $1.8 trillion under management. The workshops will be co-facilitated by MiddleGame Ventures, a financial services investment fund with a team that has invested over $300 million in nearly 100 financial services firms.
The program will take place over the course of three separate workshops during the months of September, October, and November in Washington, DC, San Francisco and New York. This structure helps participating entrepreneurs sharpen their business case for investment through one-on-one time with investors, mentors, and potential customers while providing access to Village Capital’s methodology, which helps participants assess their company’s strengths and areas for growth.
The full list of startups is:
At the end of the program, two peer-selected companies in the cohort will receive an offer of $100,000 in investment from Village Capital’s affiliated investment fund, VilCap Investments.
