Software Mind has partnered with Helsinki Fintech Farm, the fintech hub of Finland and a leading platform for digital finance collaboration across the Nordics. The partnership connects Software Mind with the region’s community of banks, fintechs, service providers and regulators – and gives Nordic financial organizations access to a technology partner with more than 25 years of engineering experience.
The Nordic financial sector has a long track record of digital adoption, from mobile payments to open banking. Today, banks and fintechs in the region face a new set of pressures. They need to modernize legacy systems, meet regulations like the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) and bring AI into daily operations – without slowing down product delivery.
Helsinki Fintech Farm brings these organizations together through flagship events, including the Nordic Fintech Summit and Nordic Banking Forum, as well as training, matchmaking and market entry programs. As a partner, Software Mind will take an active part in this community, share its experience from projects for banks, lenders and payment providers and work with local organizations on their next stage of growth.
Software Mind supports financial organizations across the full software life cycle. Its teams build core banking, payments and lending software and migrate legacy systems to the cloud. The company also delivers data and AI solutions for risk, compliance and customer experience – with security and quality assurance built in for regulated environments.
“The Nordics are a strategic priority for our financial services business. Banks and fintechs in the region need to modernize core systems and turn AI investment into tangible business value while maintaining operational resilience and meeting regulatory requirements. Our role is to help them translate those priorities into secure, reliable solutions that support their growth. Partnering with Helsinki Fintech Farm brings us closer to the region’s financial community and creates opportunities to combine local insight with our engineering expertise,”
says Tomasz Krakowczyk, Head of Financial Services at Software Mind.
“Nordic banks and fintechs value partners who are close to them – who understand the local market and show up in person. Partnering with Helsinki Fintech Farm is an important step in building that presence for Software Mind. It gives us a place to meet the region’s financial community, hear about the challenges they’re facing and start conversations that can grow into long-term cooperation.”
says Jakub Śmietana, Regional Business Development Consultant for Nordics at Software Mind.
