FutureBanking is a platform for the innovation and growth of businesses run by or for under-represented groups. We support a diverse talent pipeline, bringing the talent together with businesses run by or for minorities, and helping the businesses grow by accessing funding and upskilling. We create the ultimate conditions which bring together a diverse group to accelerate forward-thinking topics on the future financial ecosystem, whether it's & ESG, the skills gap, or the 4th Industrial Revolution. Our agenda is tailored to embrace, represent, and celebrate all people and of all cultures. We support our community through up-skilling, discussions on current challenges, as-well-as specific game-changing opportunities facing the next generation of women and men in FinTech.

Not only the way things work today but the way with technology if we all work together we can do some profoundly better things to make what we do as banking professionals even more inclusive going forward."
Matt Hammerstein
CEO, Barclays UK"I really enjoy attending FutureBanking events. The workshops are a great opportunity to work together problem-solving with people from different companies and parts of the bank. Also, hearing from the speakers and getting their insights."
R. Odametey
Client Integration Relationship Manager, BNP Paribas"I was inspired by listening to the insight provided by the speakers. It's become ever clearer to me that the current way of thinking in the corporate world is outdated and we have to think completely differently to move forward in an increasingly technology-dominated workplace. I'm looking forward to the next event to further expand my knowledge and thinking."
N. Shah
Senior Manager - CFO Advisory, EY"Thoroughly enjoy FutureBanking events! Rich discussions and excellent networking opportunities"
S. Acquaye
Product Management Specialist"What came out of the event for me was the diversity of thought: similar yet different approaches to the same problem. I'd be delighted to delve deeper."
P. Meehan
Founder, Cybersecurity Workforce Alliance"It has been great to see FutureBanking as a platform for diversity in Fintech. Aside from passion and enthusiasm, its core strengths lie in building teams creating stakeholder engagement. Along with the [sponsorship from] Barclays, and [partnership with] wider financial and entrepreneur ecosystem, to create social impact and lead innovation through the Conferences and Exhibitions held by FutureBanking."
