Where it started

When our team member Alicia Roisman Ismach landed on Venn Innovation’s doorstep, we had no idea where things would go. Since first meeting her in 2019, she helped open Atlantic Canada’s eyes to the opportunity of fintech: that is, companies that sell into (or could) into the financial industry.

With over 140 companies in our ecosystem (that number is growing every day!), Atlantic Fintech is growing. Are you going to join us on the journey?

What is fintech?

Fintech is a broad term that encompasses products that directly relate to the financial industry, financial processes, or have great use cases for the financial industry.

Many technologies and enabling technologies like analytics, AI, cybersecurity and many more underpin great value for companies in the financial industry: and we’re here for it.

Are you a fintech?

If yes, welcome to the fintech community!

Do you sell into the financial industry today, or, would entities like banks, insurance companies, investment houses, real estate brokers, consumer finance companies, mortgage lenders, real estate investment trusts or others benefit from your technology?

OR

Does your product help with a financial component of a corporation, or, does it have a financial component related to your solution?

If so, welcome! Not sure? Let’s chat!

“At SnapTrade, we have found Atlantic Fintech to be an invaluable part of the entrepreneurial ecosystem in Atlantic Canada. One of the disadvantages to founding a fintech company in Atlantic Canada is the low population density and long distances to other commercial centres. Our founders are spread all over the region and are not able to benefit from interacting with peers on a regular basis. Atlantic Fintech works to connect us with each other and facilitate opportunities to collaborate and learn. While I'm busy grinding away at my business, it's comforting to know that Atlantic Fintech is working hard at identifying new opportunities and organizing events to keep me in the loop and amplify the impact we all have.”
