A Rise for London
By Teamspirit on Monday, 1 May 2017
In an effort to demonstrate their fintech expertise, earlier this week Barclays launched a co-working space for financial technologies in Shoreditch called Rise.
This is the seventh site to be added to Barclays’ growing fintech innovation arm, following on from Rise’s existing locations in New York, Mumbai and Cape Town.
They hope the working environment will nurture customer and business opportunities by pulling together fintech startups, corporate clients and additional experts. The space will be used to host workshops, hackathons and networking on a regular basis.
It is certainly exciting to see London assume a position in this network of global fintech workspaces, and we will keep an eye out for any innovation to emerge from the platform.
