Widely regarded as one of the UK’s most influential fintech leaders, Boden will share her insights from her career and perspectives on the future of financial services at the Swansea Building Society Arena on 3 June.

Originally from Swansea, her appearance marks a return to her roots, bringing her experience to a new generation of fintech talent in Wales.

The inaugural Wales Fintech Festival takes place next month, created by and for the FinTech Wales community. Ticket information and further details for the event can be found on the Fintech Wales website.

Anne Boden MBE said: “I’m excited to join the celebration of the Wales Fintech Festival and to be part of such a dynamic and fast-growing community. Wales is producing some brilliant businesses and entrepreneurs, and it’s inspiring to see the level of innovation and ambition across the sector. Building Starling Bank showed me what’s possible when you challenge the status quo, and I hope sharing my experiences can encourage others to think differently, take risks and shape the future of financial services.”
