Avion Gray, Co-Founder & CEO, Belong

Former investment banker Avion Gray together with behavioural economist Samantha Rosenberg have launched wealth-building platform Belong in response to inertia in the wealth management sector and among millennials – the FinTech’s target demographic. The new WealthTech platform secured the largest-ever pre-seed round by a female-led FinTech in Europe. A unique feature of the new offering is a ‘boost loan’ that offers investors the option of a low-cost loan that would double their starting investment. Avion Gray, Co-Founder and CEO of Belong speaks to Robin Amlôt of IBS Intelligence.

Alana Levine, Chief Revenue Officer, Fintel Connect

FinTechs in Canada are making waves in a financial services scene that has been traditionally dominated by just 5 big banks. How? As a result of a new approach to partnerships and affiliate marketing. For example, Neo Financial grew customer acquisition by 511% and boosted its credibility through the implementation of performance marketing strategies. Alana Levine, Chief Revenue Officer at Fintel Connect, an affiliate and influencer marketing solution for financial services, speaks to Robin Amlôt of IBS Intelligence.

A new category of FinTech? Maybe… Flyfish aims to develop a comprehensive marketplace for financial services, hoping to mirror the impact of the likes of Airbnb but doing so in the financial sector. The company wants to be a disruptor and is on a mission to explain to potential clients and partners why that disruption makes sense, integrating diverse financial services into one platform and making it easier for businesses to manage their financial operations.
