Mission
Amplify Innovate Finance’s role as the leading voice of the UK fintech sector, bringing together start-ups, investors, high-growth fintechs, big tech and the traditional world of finance to strengthen the industry and advance its growth on a global stage.
Campaign
Seven Hills has been the communications and campaigns partner for Innovate Finance since 2015, delivering year-round press office support and handling their flagship annual conference, the Innovate Finance Global Summit (IFGS).
The press office work has focused on communicating key fintech industry trends and issues to government, influencing policy and driving forward regulatory change to promote the growth of the industry. Media activity has also included regular commentary on major industry developments, highlighting the role of technology in growing the UK’s finance services global prowess, and profiling of the Innovate Finance CEO, Janine Hirt, in national and international outlets, including the Financial Times, Bloomberg, Reuters, The Daily Telegraph and Politico.
In 2024, we celebrated 10 years of our partnership, helping to develop and execute the most successful IFGS yet, with over 300 speakers across two stages, over three days.
Every year since the Summit’s inception in 2015, the Seven Hills team has worked closely with Innovate Finance to curate an agenda that resonates with the international fintech community, bringing together a line-up of fintech CEOs, renowned industry experts, and influential government ministers, leading to extensive coverage across major news outlets. Our team delivers all aspects of the Summit, from developing the content and themes, to sourcing and briefing the speakers.
Seven Hills also collaborates with Innovate Finance to curate and organise their second annual convening moment – FinTech as a Force For Good (FFFG). Taking place in the Autumn, the event brings together fintech leaders to focus on the solutions the sector can drive forward for the biggest challenges we’re facing, including climate change and the cost of living crisis.
“Innovate Finance would like to see a more diverse Fintech Industry in terms of gender, ethnicity, and social-economic background. This would not only be important in terms of inclusion but also help to address talent shortages.” – Forbes
Momentum
Seven Hills has solidified Innovate Finance as the leading voice of UK fintech, positioning it as a vibrant, influential, and effective network that unites the diverse fintech community to advance the sector as a whole.
