Founded in 2012 and based in Frankfurt and London, TechFluence is a research, advisory and corporate development boutique on a mission to create the financial services of the future. We are working with Financial Institutions, Investors and Corporates who share our passion for startups and "hidden champions" creating next generation finance. In 2014 we were named to the Wall Street Journal FN FinTech 40: "40 Innovators Shaping the Future of Finance". In 2013, when Continental Europe was known for just a handful of FinTech startups, we co-founded FinTech Forum. The first and the largest community for FinTech in the region, FinTech Forum connects promising startups and innovators with investors, financial institutions and corporates via our events, research, newsletter and online platform. In March 2015 we were named to the German Innovationspreis IT "Best of 2015" for our offering FinTech Autobahn, which is helping financial institutions, investors and corporates identify, partner with or in invest in Financial Technology startups and "hidden champions" globally.
