On this episode of Fintech Insider Insights, host David M. Brear is joined by Simon Bumfrey, Head of Technology & Life Sciences at HSBC Innovation Banking UK.

In June 2023, HSBC Innovation Banking UK was launched at London Tech Week, following HSBC's acquisition of Silicon Valley Bank UK in March.

It was one of the fastest and smoothest acquisitions ever with fintechs, banks, regulators and more coming together to make the transaction over a weekend.

And just 3 months later HSBC Innovation Banking launched, taking the specialist knowledge of SVB and the global reach of HSBC, to enable businesses focused on innovation to compete globally.

HSBC Innovation Banking UK has 700 employees and is a specialised banking proposition for businesses in cutting-edge sectors, such as tech and life sciences, and their investors.

So we want to find out a little more about HSBC Innovation Banking and reflect on the last year since that initial launch.
