In the opening episode of season six of the What the Fintech? podcast, we’re joined by Amias Gerety, partner at QED Investors, to discuss the ever-evolving fintech funding landscape and the outlook for venture capital funding in 2025.

Amias and FinTech Futures editor Paul Hindle discuss the technologies and verticals that are attracting the most interest from VCs, how QED is approaching its fintech funding strategy, some key advice for founders when it comes to scaling a new start-up, and of course the big tech trends to keep an eye on looking forward.

And finally, we find out what fintech buzzword Amias wants to lock away in our Fintech Jail!
