Finclusiv Edge connects people who believe fintech can create more value.
We bring together founders, financial professionals, policymakers, technologists, educators, and students to grow a more inclusive and resilient fintech community, hosted in Halifax.
We focus on what is often overlooked: community, connection, and conversation.
We build bridges across sectors.
We create space for meaningful connections between fintechs, financial institutions, community leaders, students, and public sector changemakers. We help people find each other, and uncover opportunities to collaborate.
We host conversations that matter.
From roundtables and panel talks to informal meetups, we spotlight real issues and invite diverse perspectives. Our events go beyond talk about innovation to challenge assumptions and develop new thinking.
We nurture an inclusive ecosystem.
We welcome newcomers, underrepresented voices, and students eager to explore fintech. Whether you're a founder or just fintech-curious, this is a place where you can grow your network and find your place in the community.
We advocate for fintech with purpose.
We champion initiatives and technologies that improve financial access, literacy, and resilience — and we believe innovation should serve those it impacts.
Stay tuned for more details on our inaugural event on October 23, 2025 in Halifax!
