For the past six months, the amazing team at Fintech Sandbox juggled two jobs - running our global Data Access Residency program & planning our 7th #BostonFintechWeek. It’s a big load to carry and we’ve just got the numbers in for the week. 5,600 + registrants 3,600 + attendees at 55 sessions 900 + attendees at the Fintech Sandbox Innovation Forum at the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston from 10 countries and 24 states This is an amazing testament to our community, compelling speakers, sponsors, and #data providers, but perhaps more so to the team at Fintech Sandbox. They work behind the scenes everyday to support our worldclass #Founders and make a positive impact on our rapidly changing #FinancialServices industry. The team - Kelly Fryer, Brian Cabanban, David Savage, Jim Smith, Meg N., Nicole Edwards, @Candance MacDonald, Elizabeth Thomas, Elizabeth Heiney - is back to work. I hope if you cross paths with them via zoom or in person, you’ll thank them!

We are excited to be included and congrats to our fellow #fintech100 winners and thank you to CB Insights
CB Insights today named Sandbox Banking to its seventh annual Fintech 100, showcasing the 100 most promising private fintech companies in the world. “The 2024 Fintech 100 winners are high-momentum companies shaping the future of financial services,” said Laura Kennedy, Principal Analyst at CB Insights. “Unsurprisingly, this year’s cohort is deploying AI across a wide variety of solutions. But they’re also diverse in their reach in emerging and developing economies, and focus on everything from fraud prevention to financial inclusion.” "We are thrilled and honored to be named to the 2024 Fintech 100 by CB Insights,” said Ravi Balasubramanian, CEO of Sandbox Banking. “This recognition is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team, as well as the innovative solutions we’re building to empower banks and credit unions. As we continue to push the boundaries of fintech integrations with the strength of a dedicated iPaaS for the financial sector, being acknowledged among such a distinguished group of companies is incredibly rewarding and motivating." The list primarily includes early- and mid-stage startups driving innovation across fintech. CB Insights’ research team picked winning companies based on CB Insights datasets, including deal activity, industry partnerships, team strength, investor strength, employee headcount, and proprietary Commercial Maturity and Mosaic scores, as well as Analyst Briefings submitted directly to us by startups. Quick facts on the 2024 Fintech 100: - The 100 winners include 13 wealth management companies, 11 in embedded finance, and 10 in insurance. - The 2024 cohort is deploying AI across a wide variety of use cases and features a notable number of solutions driving financial inclusion and accessibility. - $7.2B in equity funding raised over time, including more than $2B in 2024 so far (as of 10/23/2024). - Nearly 50% are early-stage companies (primarily seed/angel or Series A). - 52 companies from outside the United States, across 23 countries on 6 continents. This includes 17 companies from 11 emerging and developing economies. - 850+ business relationships since 2022, including with industry leaders like Mastercard, State Street, and Flipkart. Congrats to all the winners, and special thanks to the team that makes Sandbox Banking a powerhouse in financial services! www.sandboxbanking.com #Fintech #banks #creditunions #ipaas #Fintech100
