Global Fintech Funding Shows Resilience Amidst Market Fluctuations Global fintech funding hit $25.6 billion in the first half of 2024, a slight decrease from the $31.1 billion raised in the same period in 2023. (Source: KPMG Pulse of Fintech, H1 2023 & H1 2024) While funding has cooled slightly from the 2023 peak, this demonstrates the sector's resilience and enduring appeal to investors. It's a testament to the fact that fintech isn't just about riding trends; it's about solving real-world financial challenges with innovative solutions. #fintech #venturecapital #funding #innovation #growth

Money20/20 Europe Recap: Decoding the Art of the Raise Last month, Money20/20 Europe brought together some of the brightest minds in fintech for discussions that delved deep into the challenges and opportunities facing the industry. A standout session for us at TwentyFold was "The Art of the Raise: What Investors REALLY Want," featuring a panel of seasoned experts: Kaushalya Somasundaram (Partner, FinTech Growth Fund), Hélène FALCHIER (Partner, Portage ), and Neil Cunha-Gomes (Head of EMEA Fintech & Digital Assets, SoftBank Investment Advisers), moderated by Money20/20's own Micky Tesfaye. With capital becoming increasingly scarce and competition for funding reaching new heights, understanding the investor's perspective is crucial. This session offered founders valuable insights into the often unspoken expectations and intangible factors that can make or break a funding deal. Key Takeaways: > Capital Allocation: Be prepared to present a meticulously detailed plan on how you intend to allocate invested capital, demonstrating a clear path towards growth and return. > Metrics That Matter: Showcase business metrics that go beyond vanity numbers and reveal the true sustainability and potential of your venture. > Customer-Centricity: Never lose sight of your customer and their needs. Investors are seeking solutions that genuinely address customer pain points. If you're looking for more in-depth analysis and insights, don't miss the upcoming Money20/20 USA this October, where we'll be diving deeper into these topics and more. https://us.money2020.com/ At TwentyFold, we understand the importance of aligning founder vision with investor expectations.

Goldman Sachs Throws $36 Million Fuel on Canoe Intelligence's Fire: A Signal Flare for the Alternative Investment World Goldman Sachs just supercharged Canoe Intelligence with a $36 million Series C, and it's not just a cash injection - it's a shot across the bow of the alternative investment industry. Here's why this is more than just another funding round: > The Smart Money is on AI: Goldman isn't known for frivolous bets. This move signals their conviction that AI isn't just a trend, but the future of how alternative investments are managed. Canoe isn't just automating tasks; it's giving investors the kind of edge they crave in an increasingly complex market. > The 100% Growth Club: Canoe isn't some fledgling startup. They've doubled their client base and revenue in the past year, proving their tech isn't just hype, it delivers results. This is the kind of growth that gets VCs salivating. > Data as the New Currency: Canoe isn't just about pretty dashboards. It's about turning mountains of unstructured alternative investment data into actionable intelligence. In a world where information is power, Canoe is giving its clients a major advantage. > The Goldman Seal of Approval: This isn't just about money; it's about credibility. Having Goldman Sachs in your corner is like winning the lottery for a startup, and it's likely to attract even more attention from both investors and potential clients. > The Ripple Effect: This investment is likely to trigger a chain reaction in the industry. Expect to see increased competition and innovation as other players race to catch up with Canoe's AI-powered capabilities. Investors will increasingly demand more sophisticated and efficient data management solutions, and those who fail to adapt risk being left behind. Canoe Intelligence's Winning Formula: Canoe Intelligence isn't just about fancy algorithms; it's about solving real-world problems for investors. By automating data collection, categorization, and extraction, Canoe is saving investors valuable time and resources while improving data accuracy and decision-making capabilities. So, what's the takeaway for VCs? If you're not already paying attention to the AI-powered revolution happening in alternative investment data, now is the time to start.
