Where European FinTech meets up, with Douglas Mackenzie (Fintech Meetup Europe)
We're two weeks away from Europe's most valuable fintech event, so if you want to be a part of that, you have to act quickly - get your tickets, and then get yourself registered on the meeting platform before that closes on Friday. But today's interview isn't just for conference attendees; you might not be able to make it in person, but these are conversations you want to tap into.
