Finaeo has been selected as the only Canadian company to join the 2021 MassChallenge FinTech cohort. Over 325 startups from around the world applied to participate, with only 30 companies being selected to join the program.

MassChallenge, headquartered in the United States with seven locations worldwide, equips bold entrepreneurs to disrupt the status quo and to create meaningful change through dedicated programs to foster co-creation between corporates and startups.

From January to June, Finaeo will work 1:1 with their MassChallenge corporate partner, MassMutual, to tackle specific challenges facing the industry. By participating in this program, Finaeo will also gain access to industry experts and mentors, enterprise-readiness programming, and customized resources and support.

“MassMutual is excited to be partnered with Finaeo to help develop innovative solutions that can more effectively and efficiently meet the needs of clients throughout the United States,” said Charles Gray, Head of MML Insurance Agency at MassMutual.

As Finaeo looks to broaden our reach and expand our solution, participating in this industry leading program will certainly give us the opportunity to learn, develop and execute on this massive industry challenge.
