We use cloud-based software to keep in touch and stay productive across timezones. We have an open and flexible culture at our London headquarters in Moorgate and due to to our global market, the team has to be able to work when on the road or on client sites wherever they are and stay in touch with our London base. (6) Do you employ any kind of flexible working, and how does technology fit into this I also believe that the transparent approach applied within the industry has helped to re-instate much needed trust within the finance sector. Thanks to a niche strategy, the fintech industry has progressively, piece by piece, taken over segments of the financial industry from loans and transfers of money to investment in such a speed that the traditional banks are struggling to keep up. (5) For a company that isnвЂ™t technology based, how has a digital approach helped you to carve out a bigger market and acquire new customersДЇor a long time, financial institutions thought that complex legal structure and heavy regulations would prevent the Internet from taking over such firms simply failed to anticipate the mix of good timing, ideas, and opportunities as well as new customers, agility and talent that lead to the current fintech revolution.

As we expected, working with large banks and financial institutions it can be difficult to gain traction as a new startup, and lead times on deals can be slow when many stakeholders are involved.

Sometimes we meet with potential clients who donвЂ™t realise they have a problem until we present the solution, and we have to keep on top of our messaging to ensure weвЂ™re relevant in different markets. (4) What kind of obstacles are you encountering as you grow your enterprise I encourage the team to remain agile, and itвЂ™s important that we can be flexible in how we tackle each project and challenge, and not be afraid to modify the course.
