Fintech accelerators are hot, but are they worth the hype? At Money20/20 Europe Aruna Bhalla (TSB Bank), Rachel Curtis (CEO and co-founder of Inicio AI) and Maxine Mackie (Label Sessions) offered a behind-the-scenes look at these programs. Here's what Fintechs and Banks can take away For fintechs: ↳ Focus on Problem-Solving: Showcase how your product addresses the program's specific challenges, not just its features. ↳ Network Beyond the Program: Build relationships and leverage the program's network for long-term benefits. ↳ Be Realistic About Integration: Consider a standalone solution initially to avoid slowing progress with complex integrations. ↳ Embrace Mentorship: Learn from experienced professionals to accelerate your growth. For banks: ↳ Plan Ahead: Secure sponsorships and engage stakeholders early for a smooth program launch. ↳ Align with Strategy: Ensure the program aligns with your bank's overall business goals. ↳ Deliver Value: Offer access to decision-makers and potential customers to make the program truly valuable for Fintechs. ↳ Invest in the Future: Consider second chances for promising Fintechs who might need more time to develop.
