FinTech Forum turned two years old in July 2015, and true to our tradition we decided to celebrate with the growing community of startups who have presented at our events. Last year this article was sufficient: http://www.fintechforum.de/fintech-forum-d-a-ch-turns-one/ This year, we had to reach out to nearly 100 startups who have presented so far at our five events. We asked them (like last year), what they have been up to (achievements) and how could we help them (wants). The number of responses we got needed a yearbook – so here it is! As before, if you are interested in talking to any of the startups, please feel free to reach out to the founders directly via LinkedIn or Xing, or drop us a line and we will be more than happy to make an introduction.
