Mass Fintech Hub, a public-private partnership that supports the financial technology industry in Massachusetts, will hold its first virtual series next week as part of Boston FinTech Week.
FinTech Sandbox had expected to welcome thousands of people to Boston this week for its fourth annual FinTech Week. But despite the pandemic – the conference has been rescheduled until March 2021 – the nonprofit still has big news: a new executive director in the person of Kelly Fryer.
For FDIC Chairman Jelena McWilliams, technological innovations threaten the viability of small banks. Speaking on FinTech Week’s first day, McWilliams said small banks risk losing customers to their competitors because they are not at the forefront of technological innovation.
With women filling only one-third of area tech jobs, they face an uphill battle to advance professionally. At a recent forum, successful female fintech leaders said mentorship, partnerships with universities and boosting the visibility of current women leaders can help.
Downtown Boston will become one large conference venue for the fintech industry as FinTech Sandbox’s FinTech Week 2019 kicks off Sept. 9.
Earlier this month, organizations and stakeholders from across the finance ecosystem came together for Boston Fintech Week, a volunteer-led, grassroots effort that put together 35 free events in Downtown Boston.
