Six early-stage fintech companies are gearing up for the opportunity to connect with advisors and investors through the Center for Accelerating Financial Equity (CAFE) first-ever ten-week Fintech Accelerator Program. Starting on March 25, participants will have the chance to meet and connect with advisors, speakers, investors, and representatives from financial institutions and banks to advance their companies.
