FinovateEurope 2012 is just over two months away and it is shaping up to be a great conference. The quality and number of applications we received from companies seeking to debut their latest fintech innovations at the event was truly impressive. That quality meant hard choices for us during the selection process but it also means an amazing showcase of new ideas in European financial technology for the audience.

On February 7th next year, the following companies will take the stage
in London to demo their latest and greatest innovations (we’ll also be
revealing a couple of “stealth” additions to this list closer to the
event):

  • AcceptEmail
  • Actiance
  • Adobe
  • Backbase
  • BCSG
  • Cardlytics
  • CREALOGIX
  • CurrencyFair
  • DCisions
  • eToro
  • ETRONIKA
  • Fenergo
  • Figlo
  • Fiserv
  • Holvi Payment Services
  • iBrokr AG
  • IND Group
  • Ixaris Systems
  • Kabbage
  • Luup
  • Meniga
  • miiCard
  • Mootwin 
  • Nutmeg
  • PayPal
  • Ping Identity
  • Quid
  • Sandstone Technology
  • Serverside Group
  • Service2Media
  • Striata
  • Tradeshift
  • ValidSoft

If you’d lock in your spot to watch the future of financial and banking technology debut in London next February, please register soon. Tickets for the event are selling quickly — well ahead of last year’s pace when we sold out weeks ahead of the conference. In addition, register by Friday December 2nd and you’ll get the affordable very early-bird price on your ticket.
