💫 That’s a wrap on the 2024 @Payments Canada SUMMIT 💫 The Fintech Cadence team had a remarkable experience at this year’s The Payments Canada SUMMIT, where we not only caught up with many of our colleagues and friends across the payments ecosystem but also celebrated the success of our collective collaboration. A big thank you goes out to the Payments Canada team (Special shoutout to Elizabeth Dempsey and Julia Orlando) for their continued collaboration with us as community partners again this year! Our Executive Director Layial El-Hadi moderated a session on "Uplifting the Canadian Fintech Ecosystem,” joined by panellists Shirley Hsu (FreshBooks), Lisa Shields (FISPAN), and Jennifer Rodrigues (TD). The discussion emphasized the opportunities for collaboration between large financial institutions and fintech startups, addressing differences in regulations, risk tolerance, decision-making, communication, and inter-organizational dynamics. We once again had the chance to host the #FintechStage on the final day of the conference, where we had the opportunity to showcase three amazing founders and their startups Leslie Emenalo (Kobopay), Shams Syed (APTPAY ), and Andrew Dillard (Acceleron Bank, in formation) 🚀! Lastly, we closed out the Summit by highlighting the importance of collaboration and partnership for startups in the Canadian market moderated by our very own Molly Willats. We thank our panelists for their valuable insights and candid engagement: .Ysabel L. from Interac Corp., Adriana Iglesias Romero from Wealthsimple, and Ryan Rego from Plooto. This year's Summit highlighted the need for Canada to catch up and lead in payments innovation. We have the necessary ingredients but are falling behind.
