History
We have been holding “Fintech Meetup” regularly since October 2014 to offer opportunities for financial institutions and domestic/foreign startups to exchange opinions freely. We felt strongly the need for an organization that supports free and vigorous exchange activities. 20 startups with the same intention, general corporations, individuals and organizations gathered, and the Fintech Association of Japan was established in September 2015.
Since then, we have expanded the scope of our mission to contribute to revitalizing the Fintech market and improving the presence of the Japanese financial industry worldwide by working closely with major companies in Japan and overseas, startups and related ministries and agencies.
