The Fellowship Panel
Niels Turfboer
Managing Director, Spotcap
“The rising cost of graduate studies and changing labour conditions could create challenges when it comes to ensuring a healthy talent pipeline. We created the Spotcap Fellowship to highlight the need for fintech talent and encourage the industry to raise awareness of career opportunities.”
Ryan Weeks
Editor, Altfi
“In the conversations I've had with fintech firms since Brexit, developing, retaining and continuing to hire top talent in the UK has been a concern. Initiatives like the Fintech Fellowship are a great way to keep that talent coming in less certain times.”
Devie Mohan
Fintech expert, Co-founder of Burnmark
“The UK government recognises the need for fintech related skills and has put several initiatives in place. As an industry, we should also step up and contribute. Aspiring graduate students need to hear ‘we want you’ directly from fintech businesses as well.”
