JPMorgan has opened applications for a new fintech accelerater programme for startups and business founders in the UK.

Developed in conjunction with EY, the Fintech Forward exercise is a 12-week in-person and virtual programme for founders who are applying technology to create scalable solutions within financial services.

Candidate for the programme must have a live product demonstrating market traction, with annual revenues not exceeding £1 million.

Successful applicants will gain access to expert mentorship from bank executives, tailored workshops with industry specialists, such as a two-day offsite at JPMorgan’s technology centre in Glasgow, and opportunities to showcase their business to potential investors and commercial partners. Participants will also have the opportunity to take part in a sponsored trip to Slush in Helsinki, one of the world’s most founder-focused events.
