Momentum London partners with Travelex

by Startacus Admin

Leading global foreign exchange and money transfer specialists Travelex have partnered with Momentum London, an organisation which connects high growth tech businesses with large corporates to validate markets and open commercial opportunities.

As part of the partnership, Travelex will support Momentum in hosting quarterly evening events where startups will be able to showcase their products to Momentum’s network of over 300 senior industry leaders. In addition, Momentum and startups within the network will host emerging tech ‘deep dives’ and business transformation sessions for corporate members, throughout the year.

Momentum works closely with startups and corporates to foster growth and innovation. To date, Momentum has worked closely with 24 startups and 2018 will see another 40 join the network. We took a look at the inaugural Momentum London programme and selected startups less than 12 months ago and it is great to see their progress and how much momentum they themselves have made since then.

Gareth Williams, Chief Innovation and Transformation Officer, Travelex, said:
“We are delighted to be partnering with Momentum, an organisation which supports some of the UK’s best startups. Innovation is central to Travelex’s proposition so we look forward to sharing insights with the rest of the Momentum network. As our industry continues to evolve, this is a unique opportunity for us to engage with emerging companies and remain at its technological forefront.

Ricardo Simard, Co-Founder and Managing Director, Momentum, said:
“Travelex is a world leader in the financial services industry and we're delighted to be working together to support their digital transformation activities. The Momentum network of B2B technology startups are at the forefront of innovation, and bring opportunities that can help future proof corporate members. Travelex will offer startups unique insight into the financial services industry that can support our network test their assumptions and validate their proposition with one of the market leaders, as well as discover potential commercial opportunities.”

Congrats to Momentum and we look forward to hopefully attending one of these quarterly evening events as they go live.
