FinTech East Platform (17:30 - 20:00): explore the region’s FinTech hub, plus a fireside chat and panel on its future.

Join us on Tuesday 10 November from 17:30 at Ipswich Town Hall for an evening exploring the future of FinTech in Suffolk and the wider East of England. Our event will take place in Gallery Three at Ipswich Town Hall.

We’ll introduce the new digital platform built to bring the region’s ecosystem into focus — complete with an interactive directory, regional map, and curated resources that highlight the depth and diversity of FinTech activity across the East.

Our fireside chat and panel discussion will bring together voices from across the sector to explore why the region is often called the UK’s “best-kept secret” in FinTech, and to discuss the opportunities and challenges shaping its future.

After the discussion, enjoy drinks and pizza with fellow attendees — a relaxed chance to connect, share ideas, and continue the conversation.
