FinanceX is an official Media Partner to IMPACT Funders & Founders 2026

FinanceX Magazine is proud to announce its media partnership with IMPACT Funders & Founders 2026, the first-ever event dedicated exclusively to connecting fintech startups and scaleups with the investors who can fund their next stage of growth. Taking place on 11 September 2026 at the New York Marriott Marquis in New York, the inaugural gathering bridges capital and innovation in the financial services arena.

Designed for a focused community of venture capitalists, investors, fintech founders, and startup leaders, IMPACT Funders & Founders offers a curated experience unlike the crowded pitch circuit. Attendees can expect 80 minutes of tailored one-to-one matchmaking meetings, dual content stages for founders and investors, off-the-record roundtables covering emerging markets, crypto frameworks, GP-LP partnerships, scaling, and customer acquisition, and rapid four-minute startup pitches followed by direct investor Q&A.

The 2026 programme features a strong line-up of confirmed speakers, including Asya Bradley, Startups & Venture Capital Lead at Stripe; Deborah Jackson, CEO & Founder of Plum Alley; Sarah Biller, Co-Founder of Fintech Sandbox; Brandon Oliver, Principal and Head of Bank Relations at BankTech Ventures; Josh Tanenbaum, Managing Partner at Rebalance Capital; Derek Corcoran, Fintech Strategist & Evangelist at Accutive Fintech; Alessandro Rinaldi, Partner at Launch Factory; and more.

Adding further value, the event runs alongside FinovateFall on the same day, giving attendees access to hundreds of additional professionals from banks, credit unions, payment service providers, fintechs, and media in a shared exhibit hall.
