TRAD Voleo Trading Systems Inc

Voleo Trading Systems Inc. (TRAD: TSX-V) (“Voleo”, the “Company”), has completed the 2019 Fidelity National Information Services (“FIS”) Fintech Accelerator Program in Little Rock, Arkansas.

As one of the ten selected start-up companies, Voleo benefitted from a 12-week on-site mentorship program at The Venture Center. Through in-depth business support and guidance, Voleo’s management team met with dozens of financial institutions and senior executives and gained significant exposure to their target market. Voleo was the only Canadian fintech company selected from over 225 applicants across 32 countries.    Thomas Beattie, CEO of Voleo, commented “As a Canadian company, the opportunity to work with FIS has allowed us to jump a lot of the hurdles of connecting with US financial institutions. From the start, we knew that FIS Accelerator would connect us to the right people at the right organizations, looking for innovative solutions in financial technology. We’ve met with dozens of banks and credit unions, and gained invaluable insight into the pain points of their businesses.”   

Throughout the 12-weeks, Voleo held face-to-face meetings with community banks and credit unions to discuss and develop the potential applications of their turn-key social investing product. The program culminated on July 17th with a demo day where Voleo completed a 7-minute presentation to an engaged audience of financial institution decision makers, potential investors, and community leaders. Voleo will continue to build upon these relationships in the coming weeks and months.         Morgen Sullivan, VP Growth of Voleo stated that “By focusing on accelerating the positioning and placement of our innovative platform, the support and mentorship from both FIS and the Venture Center was top of class. We are proud to be a part of this years’ cohort, have grown our network substantially and are looking forward to sharing our insights and growth.”  FIS is a global leader in financial services and technology, working with over 20,000 clients across 130 countries. FIS’ technology connects financial organizations with their customers and powers 27 billion transactions annually, moving over $9 trillion globally each year. The Venture Center has also become a major name in the fintech industry by providing entrepreneurs and start-up corporations with the innovative programs needed to connect with financial institutions and investors on the path to sustain economic growth.           FIS is investing over $100,000 (US$75,000) into Voleo across three equal tranches at a price equivalent to the RTO price of $0.25 per share. This investment is complemented by personal access to FIS’s senior executives. The Venture Center is dedicated to developing the financial innovations of the program participants and proactively supporting dialogues between the cohort and financial institutions. In the short time the FIS Accelerator Program has been established, the average capital raise of a portfolio company is over $1.8 million. For its fourth year, FIS and The Venture Center evaluated all applicants on start-up viability, product maturity and market fit, indicating the significant potential of the top ten selected participating companies.
