Meat on the Bone! Fintechs Get a Chance!
Oi everyone! It's Luffy the future King of the Pirates! Shishishi! I heard there's a huge treasure hunt going on but instead of gold it's all about…fintech? What's fintech you ask? Sounds like a super duper delicious meat dish to me! But Sanji says it's about money and stuff… booooring! But hey maybe there's a way to turn money into MEAT! CNBC and Statista are looking for the bestest most innovative companies making new fangled financial stuff. They’re calling all startups scaleups and even the old geezers of the tech world to join in! It’s like a Davy Back Fight but instead of crewmates you’re fighting for… recognition? Hmmm I’d rather have meat.
Gear Fourth! U.K. Fintechs Step Up!
This year they’re going extra crazy for companies in the U.K.! Apparently the U.K. is the king of the hill when it comes to fintech in Europe. I guess that’s where all the best… coins? Are hidden! They're making a special list just for the U.K. companies so if you’re there you’ve got double the chance to win! Like having Gear Fourth AND Gear Second! Shishishi!
Gum Gum Rocket! How to Snag the Loot!
So how do you get your hands on this fintech treasure? You gotta fill out a form! It's hosted by Statista and they'll ask you about your company's… strategies? And other boring stuff like how much money you make and how many people work for you. Sounds like something Nami would be all over! The deadline is April 25 2025! Don't be late or you'll miss out on the adventure! It’s like missing the ship to Raftel! NOOOO!
Luffy's Hungry! What Kind of Treasure?
They're putting companies into different categories like payments (for buying more MEAT!) neobanking (more places to store meat money!) digital assets (are those edible?) and even insurance technology (to protect my meat from getting stolen maybe?). Sounds like a whole buffet of… opportunities! Shishishi!
One Piece or One… Fin Piece?
Last year some big shots like Mastercard and Ant Group were on the list. And some smaller fry too! Like that Primer platform and the Stash app. Maybe I should start my own pirate fintech company! We could call it… Straw Hat Bank! We'll give out free meat with every account! What do you think? Shishishi!
Sanji's Orders: Apply Now!
So if you think your company has what it takes sign up now! Don’t be a scaredy cat like Usopp! Be brave like Zoro and dive right in! Who knows maybe you'll find the One Piece of the fintech world! Or at least a whole lotta meat money! Shishishi! But if you need help ask Statista but don't ask me because I'm gonna be eating MEAT!

I'd rather have a barrel of sake than a fintech startup.

April 25, 2025 is so far away! Can't wait for the adventure!

I bet Nami would be all over this, collecting the rewards!

I wonder if Sanji knows anything about this.

This is more boring than navigating the Calm Belt!

Sounds like a whole lotta complicated stuff, but I'm in if it means more treasure!

Is fintech edible? Asking for a friend...

If I apply, will they give me meat as a prize?
