Foundry 2025 Demo Day: Celebrating Innovation at the Wales Millennium Centre
Yesterday, the FinTech Wales community gathered at the Wales Millennium Centre to hear the nine founders take to the stage for their final pitches of the FinTech Wales Foundry programme.
Over the past six months, the founders have been fine-tuning their pitches and refining their businesses as they progressed through the Foundry. We are extremely proud of the commitment and dedication they’ve shown to scaling within the Welsh fintech ecosystem.
The close of the Foundry marks a new chapter for our founders, who will now join the FinTech Wales membership and continue to be supported on their journeys ahead. We encourage fellow members and Foundry alumni to reach out and connect with them — collaboration is key to putting Wales on the global fintech stage.
We wish them all the very best and look forward to amplifying their success stories in the future.
A special thank you to the Wales Millennium Centre for their warm hospitality and incredible venue, and to our brilliant panellists — Gareth Berry, Sarah Williams-Gardener, and Julian Mensiah — for joining us for the Q&A session.
