Last Thursday (20^th July 2023), we attended the FinTech North Newcastle Conference. Dialect attended for the second year running with the event being hosted in a beautiful old building, the Common Room in the centre of Newcastle.

The event was a great opportunity for us to showcase Dialect, where our COO, Laura presented Dialect’s mission, who we are, our services and how the business has evolved in the last 12 months since our last showcase.

Laura Scott, COO at Dialect, added “FinTech North Newcastle conference was truly fantastic event. The conference brought together many influential speakers from the industry and allowed us to connect with familiar faces and new connections. As part of the FintTech North Showcase, I had the chance to showcase Dialect, who we are, our services and reflect on the growth we have experienced as a business in the last 12 months. I am already looking forward to the next event!”

The event started with keynotes from the speakers sharing new initiatives and innovative projects designed to help FinTechs around in the Northeast, and throughout the UK to evolve and access global markets.

The conference continued with insightful panels of discussion, where speakers discussed the Future of Payments and the importance of smart data in the FinTech sector.

After lunch time, we joined the launch of the FinPact, a project and a FinTech strategy designed in the Northeast, aimed to recognise the potential of the region by continuing to collaborate with entrepreneurs, businesses and universities in the Northeast to increase the economy, workforce and the number of FinTechs in the region.

The last part of the event focused on showcasing businesses around the Northeast region, with unique business models, where our COO shared Dialect’s story.

We had a great time at the FinTech North Newcastle conference, and we are looking forward to the next one!
