Further to the recent FinTech x Gamification event held in Barclays Eagle Labs in Avenue HQ in Liverpool.

Kate Roberts opened the seminar with outline of the Investment landscape for both FinTech and Gaming industries in Liverpool and beyond and Alison Brennan talked through how to navigate through the legal aspects of regulation, GDPR, ownership and management, employees, intellectual property, customers and supply chain.
In addition there were talks from Adam Roney founder of Calls9, Dave Martin, COO British esports Association, David Gowans. Head of Creative Technology, Games and esports at Barclays and the is was followed by a panel chaired by James Hodgson, UK CEO of 300 Brains with Yodaly Sierra, CEO and co-Founder eco2wallet, Susan Falola, Founder and CEO of Juubix and Latimer King, Chief Development Officer of British esports.
Kate said, “We have the talent here in the Northwest to service FinTechs needs. We want to grow the ecosystem here, but when we ask them where they get their professional services from – lots will still go down to London! We’ve got the talent, expertise, and services here, you don’t need to look down South!”
Kate linked back to gamification and told of the high potential of FinTechs operating with a gamified proposition. “There are real opportunities for FinTechs to get that investment. What FinTechs need to do is be able to withstand these legal and regulatory headwinds. At DTM, we’re here and we’re able to do just that.”
