Fintech
The origin of Plug and Play Fintech in Silicon Valley stemmed from a casual monthly blockchain meet-up with a small group of Fintech enthusiasts. As the meet-up started to gather different members of the Fintech ecosystem, Plug and Play Fintech was launched in 2015 to gather startups and insights in the emerging blockchain space and across other Fintech sub-sectors.
