FinTech Sandbox is an industry-backed nonprofit enabling innovation in the financial sector, by making data and infrastructure available for free at the point when such access is most impactful. We focus on well-qualified, early-stage fintech startups from across the globe.
FinTech Sandbox residents, in return, are expected to collaborate with each other, sharing learnings and advancements that benefit the fintech ecosystem overall. Participating startups pay no fees, and no equity is taken.
More than 260 startups from around the world have been accepted as participants since we launched in 2015. Alumni include Kensho (acquired by S&P Global), Petal, TellusLabs (acquired by Indigo), and Quantopian. Companies accepted to the program have raised, in aggregate, more than $600 million and created more than 600 jobs.
In addition to organizing and hosting Boston Fintech Week, FinTech Sandbox also presents a Demo Day each year to showcase FinTech Sandbox alumni, and — new during the pandemic — virtual Fintech Talks.
