With the new “Payment & Transaction Banking Accelerator” (P&T BAX), Societe Generale aims to repeat the successful experience of the previous four Global Markets Incubator initiatives that have enabled startups to emerge and develop in partnership with Societe Generale.
„The P&T BAX programme is a unique opportunity for entrepreneurs to convert innovative ideas into market-ready solutions and to gain valuable exposure to the industry,” according to the press release.
„The proposed solutions may be related to data, client communication interfaces, CSR, the fight against fraud, amongst other topics. The selected startups will have access to Societe Generale’s expertise, with the opportunity to present their solutions and services to real-life business environments,” the bank explains.
