FinTech North and NayaOne Launch Digital Sandbox and Fintech Marketplace to Foster Innovation for Northern FinTechs
LONDON, 21 July 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Today, FinTech North announces a new partnership with global digital sandbox provider NayaOne, which will see the two organizations build a dedicated marketplace for Northern FinTechs to showcase their capabilities, access datasets and test ideas.
The new platform, which will launch this summer, will provide an exclusive environment for the FinTech North community to collaborate, build products and find customers – directly responding to some of the challenges facing regional FinTechs. Access to the platform will be free for the FinTech North community.
The decision to launch the marketplace follows research conducted by FinTech North which found that 72% of Northern FinTechs would value a regional directory and 68% were looking for collaboration and partnership opportunities.
Northern FinTechs and financial services businesses will benefit in two main ways:
-
Access publicly available and synthetic datasets via the NayaOne Data Marketplace.
-
Access APIs and potential partners via the new FinTech North marketplace and NayaOne’s Enterprise Marketplace – the largest FinTech product and service marketplace in Europe.
Once registered, each firm will have a chip on the Fintech North marketplace that includes a description of capabilities plus connectivity documentation to enable technical connections, helping community members collaborate with their peers.
All users will also have access to NayaOne’s data marketplace – 100+ public and synthetic datasets, including consumer and business transaction data – to help the community test and validate solutions.
Joe RocheEngagement Manager at FinTech North, says:
“We are excited to announce our new partnership with NayaOne, which we believe will be warmly welcomed by FinTechs and established financial services firms alike. This partnership will help solve two of the key business issues facing Northern FinTechs and entrepreneurs: access to data and establish connections with established financial services.”
Kris Dickinsondirector of financial services at NayaOne, adds:
“NayaOne is very proud to partner with FinTech North to support this dynamic community of FinTechs to build products and discover partners and customers. Driving innovation in financial services is at the heart of what we do at NayaOne, and success requires collaboration and connectivity across all regions of the UK. The FinTech North marketplace is a cornerstone of that journey.”
