The Masschallenge 2024 FinTech Program is dedicated to supporting mid to late stage fintech founders on their journey to scale their companies. As a participant, they'll have access to the extensive MassChallenge community, consisting of experienced mentors, successful entrepreneurs, investors, and industry experts. The program goes beyond traditional mentorship, offering strategic advising from our network of corporate partners who bring deep industry knowledge and insights. Coupled with a curriculum specifically designed to prepare startup founders for scaling and engaging with corporate partners, we provide targeted guidance on areas such as operational efficiency, strategic partnerships, compliance, and market expansion. Our program also offers invaluable mentorship access from investors and venture capitalists from our robust MassChallenge ecosystem who can provide valuable guidance on fundraising, investor relations, and growth strategies.
While MassChallenge supports a wide array of early to late stage startups – the FinTech program is designed to support mid-late stage companies that possess a validated product/solution ready for scaling. Review our 2024 FinTech Challenge Statements.
For our in-person accelerator program, we do require that you (or a founding team member) be in attendance for all mandatory, in person events. Dates will be published by Oct 2023. Our matchmaking interview process with corporate partners, for selected startups, will be held in person, on January 16th– 18th, 2024 in the MassChallenge office in Seaport-Boston, MA.
Please note these are guidelines, not firm requirements. While funding and revenue are important factors in enterprise readiness, we also look at team strength, product/market fit, customer traction etc.
