Georgia has cemented its position as a global financial services powerhouse, home to over 200 companies generating more than $100 billion in revenue in that space. And, TAG is proud to be an integral part of our state’s fintech community supporting it through four pillars: CONNECT, PROMOTE, INFLUENCE and EDUCATE.

Our Fintech Society is excited to host the annual Welcome to Atlanta mixer on May 23rd, offering a unique opportunity to engage with the latest companies that have established or expanded their presence in Georgia. Meet and connect with both existing and new colleagues while hearing from some of the most innovative newcomers in the fintech industry, including Rainforest, myFloc, Capital One, Splitit and the ICBA, as they share why they chose our region as the base for their businesses.

But that’s not all – mark your calendars for Fintech South on September 12th and 13th, where fintech leaders from around the country – and the world! – will gather at the Georgia World Congress Center. This conference is a must-attend event to connect with industry leaders, discover new trends and best practices and explore new business opportunities.

Don’t miss out on these excellent opportunities to network and explore new horizons in the fintech industry. Register now for the Welcome to Atlanta mixer and stay tuned as online registration for Fintech South will open in the summer!
