Are you ready to propel your FinTech startup to new heights and showcase your groundbreaking solutions on a global stage? The Money Motion team invites you to be a part of the most anticipated event in the FinTech landscape – Money Motion 2024 Startup Competition!

In the ever-evolving world of finance, payments, and crypto, innovation is the key to success. The MoMo Startup Pitch is your chance to shine, attract investors, and connect with industry leaders who are eager to embrace the future of FinTech.

This is not just a competition. It is a platform where your ideas, passion, and ingenuity can reshape the future of the industry!

Teams already achieving this with their solutions will have the opportunity to join the Money Motion Startup competition again this year. The top 10 applications will be selected to pitch their business solutions and plans before a jury of six investors and industry experts.

The top three startups will share a prize pool of 10,000 euros, and their names will be heard by more than 2500 attendees at this year’s conference, taking place on March 21 and 22 at the Zagreb Fair.

All startups working on technological solutions in the fields of banking, financial management, investments, insurance, crypto trading, and other financial technologies are invited to apply for the competition on the conference’s official website with applications open until February 15.

The pitch competition will take place during the first day of the conference on the startup stage under the patronage of the Croatian Agency for SMEs, Innovation, and Investments (HAMAG-BICRO), the most important government agency for supporting small and medium-sized enterprises and an essential address for young and talented innovators developing their products and services to the commercial level using European funds and competing in the global market.

The Money Motion Startup program and competition as a separate entity on its stage were created with the organizers’ desire to leverage their knowledge, connections, and resources to bring together all the key steps for the success of FinTech startups in one place. Each of them aims to change the world and become a successful corporation, believes Luka Sučić, co-founder of Money Motion.

Corporations are attracted to innovative ideas from startups that have the potential to disrupt their business models one day. However, it often happens that a corporation, due to fundamentally different functioning and requirements, can quickly stifle a startup with a small team.

“That is precisely why we designed the Money Motion Startup program. We have experience in startups but also in working in corporations, and we know how to help both sides find a common language. Through the Money Motion Startup competition, a startup will not only gain exposure but also receive crucial feedback from people to whom they will soon offer their services,” he says and adds:

“Networking is the last but not negligible part of the story – Money Motion is a neutral ground where startups and corporations can get together without either side feeling threatened or out of place.”

The Money Motion Startup Stage announces a rich program that will address various topics related to the development and growth of FinTech startups through different lectures, panel discussions, and fireside chats.

They are bringing in leading regional venture capital funds such as LAUNCHub Ventures and GapMinder Venture Partners, accelerators, and experts, as well as globally successful FinTech companies that will share their journey with the visitors, confirmed Lana Ugrčić, coordinator of the Money Motion Startup program.

“We believe that by fostering a strong community that exchanges information and mutually supports each other, we can collectively drive the FinTech industry forward, making significant strides in financial technology and its application in today’s rapidly changing world,” she concluded.
