Summer Send-off | Nordic Fintech Highlights May 2024

As the Nordic sun lingers in the sky, signaling the start of summer, Fintech Daydreaming brings you a season finale packed with the latest and greatest from the financial technology front. Join Pål, Ville, and our beloved guest co-host Janne Salminen from Helsinki Fintech Farm for one last hurrah before we all take a well-deserved summer break. In this episode, Pål dives into the fresh collaboration between Aktia and Swedbank in Finland. This partnership is like the unexpected summer hit of the year—potentially game-changing and with a catchy tune of enhanced financial services that might just stick in your head (or your wallet). Janne brings to the table some exciting news from Doconomy, a climate fintech startup that's making waves faster than a midsummer lake. With new funding and big plans, they're the environmental warriors of the fintech world, and Janne's got the scoop on how they're planning to green our screens. Wrapping things up, Ville tackles the intricate and often murky waters of digital currencies. With Reltime enabling merchants to accept payments in digital currencies and central bank digital currencies globally, it's time to clear the air on all the misinformation floating around. It's a bit like trying to find the truth in a sea of tourist trap reviews. So, whether you're gearing up for a summer of adventures or just some peaceful nights under the Nordic sky, tune in for this episode of Fintech Daydreaming. It's your guide to the latest fintech trends and a perfect way to cap off the season. We'll be back after the break with more tales from the fintech frontier, but until then, enjoy the sunshine and stay savvy, fintech fans! - Email us on Hello@FintechDaydreaming.com - Fintech Daydreaming home page - https://www.FintechDaydreaming.com - Fintech Daydreaming on Twitter - https://twitter.com/FintechDaydream - Fintech Daydreaming on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/fintech-daydreaming - Pål Krogdahl - https://www.linkedin.com/in/krogdahl/ - Ville Sointu - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ville-sointu-54682b/
