<H2>Introduction</H2>
Investment into FinTech companies has risen dramatically from $2 Billion to $35 Billion since 2008 and is expected to reach <A HREF="https://www.statista.com/statistics/502378/value-of-fintech-investments-globally/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">$46 Billion</A> in 2020 according to <A HREF="https://www.statista.com/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Statistica.</A> 
For builders, there are a few questions to be concerned. As many of the startup companies are related to online and mobile payments, and alternative finance and financial management, how can a FinTech product outreach to its full potential and become a multi-facet product to be implemented into a consumer-based market? At the same time, how do FinTech companies and products differentiate themselves, especially with limited capital and resources for startups, from the growing market? 
For investors, they also share the equal amount of worries. How do investors make decisions on investment? What factors construct their decisions and what are they looking for in a company's different rounds of fundings? What remains consistent and what has changed?
To elaborate answers to these questions, this panel discussion invites experienced investors and builders to share their thoughts and perspectives on the matters.
