The Mastercard Lighthouse FINITIV program has launched its new round, with SelectZero chosen to be among 15 outstanding fintech and fintech-enabler startups.
“We are excited to be a part of such a recognizable and notable program. Finance is one of the most regulated fields today where the quality of data plays a notable role. We look forward to collaborating with financial institutions in the Mastercard Lighthouse program to provide an even better solution based on their requirements and needs,” said Raiko Limmart, founder of SelectZero.
During the program, participants will be able to present their solutions and discuss possible collaboration opportunities with Mastercard, Resurs, Swedbank, SEB, and OP Financial Group during a series of events and workshops. In addition, the program participants will also be introduced to various investors from the Mastercard Lighthouse’s Investor Circle, counting 140+ investors covering Europe, the UK and North America.
Mastercard Lighthouse is one of the most competitive programs of its kind for startups and early scaleups in the Nordic and Baltic region. This fall, the partnership program will focus on Sweden, Finland and the Baltics, with an ambition to contribute to the already active and growing startup scene of these countries.
