📣 New partner Resurs joins Mastercard Lighthouse FINITIV Program 📣 🤝 Mastercard Lighthouse FINITIV gives fintech startup companies the opportunity to build partnerships with established banks in the Nordics and Baltics. When this year’s program starts in August, Resurs is one of the partners that the 15 startups will meet. 🚀 The purpose of Mastercard Lighthouse #FINITIV is to create collaboration opportunities and explore potential partnerships between the fintech companies and the participating banks. The program is one of the ways that Mastercard scouts for new technology partnerships for itself and its partners, the banks. Through partnering with innovative technology companies, the ambition is to further strengthen the financial ecosystem in Nordics and Baltics and continue to lead in digital solutions. 💳 For Resurs, this means an exciting opportunity to contribute to the development of future payment and banking solutions together with innovative fintech companies.

Today’s the day! TechCrunch Disrupt is happening in San Francisco, and our co-founder, Rodney Williams, will be serving as a judge for the Visa Everywhere Initiative! The fintech landscape is evolving rapidly, but we're facing a critical challenge: regulatory frameworks that aren't keeping pace with innovation. At SoLo Funds, as we push to create financial autonomy for all, we're acutely aware of how regulatory hurdles can slow progress. We need collaborative efforts between innovators, traditional institutions, and regulators to create pathways for responsible innovation. Imagine the impact we could have on closing the wealth gap if we had a regulatory sandbox for fintech in the U.S., similar to Mexico's FinTech license. How can we better advocate for innovation-friendly regulations in fintech? #EverywhereInitiative #Fintech #Innovation #FinancialInclusion https://lnkd.in/gSUTyXdc
