GFTN Advisory - Education 

The FinTech Foundry Series: From Burn Rate to Breakout: The Blueprint for Profitable FinTech Scaling - Powered by SAP, KPMG and GFTN

The era of subsidized growth is over. The new mandate from investors is profitable velocity. This exclusive summit unites venture capital, private equity, and leading FinTech C-suite executives to decode the full path to a successful exit:

It starts with a radical shift: VCs define the new profitability mandate (CLV > CAC), demanding you stop sinking investor capital into non-scalable, self-built tech.

 

It accelerates with C-suite execution: Leaders from top-tier unicorns and regulated platforms reveal the core architectural secret: buying pre-built scalability and compliance. This single decision eliminates technical debt, unlocks cross-border agility, and ensures maximum capital is reserved for market growth.

 

Finally, it sustains valuation: Late-stage executives demonstrate how they govern explosive volume, slash administrative burden with Agentic AI and automation, and prove the disciplined, lean cost structure required to de-risk the pathway to a unicorn valuation or IPO.

 

This event is the strategic blueprint for surviving the capital squeeze and delivering inevitable profit.
