It is no secret that many startups dream to be acquired by larger financial
institutions. Only a few actually make it happen. How to get the ball rolling?
What does a business need to have to make it that far? In June 2017, Flywire

How can you benefit from the eco-system of mentors, partners, and investors in
the FinTech industry?
