Exploring the new infrastructure of markets & intelligence | Founder, NextFi | Strategic Advisor, IREN
$2.7 billion raised. 30 acquisitions. 14 years. The FinTech Innovation Lab in New York is one of the world's most important programs shaping the future of finance. And it's back for 2025. Applications are now open for early and growth-stage fintech and insurtech companies developing transformative solutions across banking, payments, insurance, and capital markets. Want proof of success? Graduates of the Lab have raised over $2.7 billion, and 30 companies have been acquired in just 14 years. Specific case studies include: 🔹 Reality Defender: Graduated from the Lab, now detecting AI-generated fraud for banks, insurers, and governments (and with a new investment from Accenture) 🔹 Hyperplane (acquired by nubank): using large language models to help financial institutions create personalized experiences and predictive models. And many, many others... the list of partners and VC's involved is remarkable. More on the program - and an opportunity to meets its graduates on November 4 is below in the comments. Congrats to Maria Gotsch and Luke Giancarlo for the massive success of this program. And to Steve Murphy and David Parker and the team at Accenture for driving it. Follow me for daily posts on the future of financial infrastructure.

Congratulations to 55/Redefined, an alumni from our 2023 cohort, on reaching this significant milestone. We’re excited to see their continued success and growth! 👏
Founder/CEO at 55Redefined Group, Public Speaker & Global Expert on how to unlock the value of our Ageing Population
📢 📢 📢 Announcement 📢 📢 📢 I am very proud to share that FTSE 250 financial services group, Just Group plc, have led a further £3m investment round into 55/Redefined, taking our funds raised to £6.3m. In addition, as part of our Global scale-up plans, we have made two new Board appointments to 55/Redefined - David Cooper from Just and Adam Hawkins from LinkedIn. Full press release 👉 https://lnkd.in/e_CT2fcE The funds are enabling the global roll-out of our enterprise SaaS solution - Me/Redefined, the world's first mid-life coaching & age insights platform that enables companies to: Predict, influence and leverage their over 50s workforce, whilst enabling all ages in the company to be inspired, not retired. You can book in a demo or join our roll-out waitlist here ➡ www.me-redefined.co David Cooper, Group Marketing & Distribution Director at Just Group and Chief Executive Officer of HUB Group, said: “At Just Group, we help people achieve a better later life. This is our purpose and why we exist. Our outcomes, and those of 55/Redefined group are aligned which made our decision to invest compelling. I’m excited to be joining the Board to help Lyndsey and the team with their future growth. I’m also looking forward to exploring the opportunities for collaboration so that we can make a positive impact on the millions of talented people who will benefit from these innovative services.” Adam Hawkins, Head of Search & Staffing, EMEA & LATAM at LinkedIn, said: “Conversations around age inclusion are gaining momentum – and it has been great to see a growing recognition of the value that experience, and wisdom, bring to the workplace. On LinkedIn alone, we've seen an 8x increase in engagement on posts about age diversity. I'm looking forward to partnering with 55/Redefined as a Board Advisor to further break down barriers and create opportunities for professionals at every stage of their careers." And a closing comment from me - Just Group recognises the need to react fast to the global megatrend of a shrinking workforce and ageing population. Me/Redefined was developed in partnership with some of the world’s largest corporates to solve for their age-related workforce need around skills, data and legally compliant but supportive off-boarding. Just Group’s investment in our company enables us to combine our insight of over 50s consumers to better serve them and the companies looking to engage with them.

"The hardest thing that I have learned is saying no to a customer. As a founder, I am trained to always say yes because every conversation is a potential customer sale. But this is a fallacy. I believe that if you say yes to everything, you will excel at nothing."
