FinTech North is delighted to announce our North West WealthTech Forum, hosted in partnership with Future Finance and hosted by Bruntwood SciTech at No.1 Circle Square in central Manchester!
We invite you to join us for our first event of Q2 in the North West, where we’ll dive into one of the region’s most prominent specialisms: WealthTech.

Throughout the event, we’ll tackle a variety of timely and impactful themes, including:
– Accessibility and inclusion – Highlighting how technology is breaking down barriers and ensuring financial services are accessible to everyone.
– Women’s wealth – Discussing strategies to empower women in wealth creation, management, and financial decision-making.
– Intergenerational wealth transfer – Exploring the evolving dynamics of wealth transfer between generations and the role of FinTech in facilitating smoother transitions.
– The Future of Savings – Covering trends, the current landscape and what’s coming down the line in savings innovation
And more to be announced…
The forum will conclude with a vibrant lunch networking session, providing the perfect setting to share insights and foster collaborations with likeminded members of the Northern FinTech community.
