The FinTech Alliance partners with Seedrs to facilitate funding opportunities for founders

The partnership will allow the FinTech Alliance to connect community businesses looking to raise capital with Seedrs. Once connected, the Seedrs team will guide them through the onboarding process and help them set up a campaign on their platform. The FinTech Alliance will continue to support the traveling businesses by enabling them to set up a microsite, publicize their campaign and connect with other founders and potential investors.

Seedrs is Europe’s leading online private investment platform that allows individuals to invest in startups, growth companies and top VC funds for qualified investors, as well as enabling aspiring entrepreneurs in all sectors to raise capital from their communities, angels and institutional investors. Since launching in 2012, Seedrs has funded more than 1,800 deals, with over £2.3 billion invested on the platform to date. With the recent acquisition of Seedrs by Republic, it is now part of the largest private investment platform in the world.

The partnership also means that Seedrs is now part of the FinTech Alliance community and can share its news and insights online and in person, connect with other companies on the platform and access all FinTech Alliance Hubs

Louis Williams, Community Manager, FinTech Alliance, commented: “We are delighted to be working with the team at Seedrs to help FinTechs launch effective crowdfunding campaigns. At FinTech Alliance, we are well placed to help the UK FinTech community through what promises to be an interesting but challenging year ahead. We want to support FinTechs with access to funding, partners, talent, insights and more. However, we cannot do this alone. Partnering with companies like Seedrs allows our platform to be much bigger and shows that the FinTech Alliance is part of a supportive ecosystem across the UK. The partnership will enable us to support FinTechs to look at all the fundraising options available and find the right one for them – while those who choose to raise onto the Seedrs platform will be supported by all the comprehensive services the FinTech Alliance offers, including fundraising insights and support for their campaign.”
