The documentary series will celebrate and inspire the FinTech industry by raising awareness of the new developments and innovation happening across the country. It will feature insightful and inspirational human-interest stories that will support Fintech Alliance to encourage investment and growth.

LONDON, UK (16 August 2022) –Today, FinTech Alliance announced ‘Scaling Innovation’, a documentary series that explores the human stories at the heart of the FinTech sector.

The series will be produced by Zinc Communicate, a Zinc Media Group company, and will be released later this year.

The ‘Scaling Innovation’ series will consist of short-form (3-5 minute) documentary films which will demonstrate the adoption of technology at the heart of the financial sector’s digital transformation, putting banking and other services in the hands of consumers.

The series will highlight the commitment of Government, regulator and industry to support the growth of FinTech and promote the UK as a global hub for financial services, whilst exploring the positive impact innovation in the finance industry has on society at large.

Financial Services is worth over £11bn to the UK economy, which supports over 76,000 jobs across the country, but the industry is not without challenges. This series will be a platform for the FinTech community to address current pain points around funding and scaling, and show what’s possible with the right support from investors and government. 

We’ll hear from the FinTech Alliance community, members of government, industry leaders, and influencers all shaping the future of FinTech.   

"Since our fruition three years ago, we have seen first hand how the UK Government and Regulator are keen to collaborate with the FinTech industry. Meanwhile, there is a strong sense of community within the ecosystem with banks, FinTechs, Big Tech and other companies striving to strike a balance between fostering innovation and keeping consumers safe. We all want the same thing but there are still barriers to address if the UK is to remain at the top of its game as a global financial services hub – underpinned by FinTech,” says Olivia Minnock, Editor, FinTech Alliance, “We are delighted to be creating content that will bring to life the impact this vital sector has on the UK and beyond.” 

This forward-looking series comes at an opportune time. Adam Harrod, Director of Business Programming at Zinc Media Group says: “FinTech is integral to most of us, and we don’t even realise what it is and how it’s being used to enhance our lives. We are looking forward to bringing greater understanding to the sector, celebrating the unsung heroes and encouraging investment and growth”. 

The series will be premiered at a VIP event in December 2022 with a large-scale marketing campaign, aimed at the FinTech Alliance community, to support it.

Invitees will include industry professionals, venture capitalists, institutions, influencers, and policymakers within governments.

We are currently seeking sponsors to be featured in the documentary, as well as additional media and distribution partners. To find out how you can be involved, please contact Adam Harrod, Director of Business Programming, Adam.Harrod@ZincMedia.com.
