Finance, Technology & the Skills for What Comes Next
A six-week, in-person summer programme helping 15–18s build real confidence in economics, finance and emerging tech — and the practical know-how to win internships, degree apprenticeships and placements at top firms.
Hear It Straight From the Ones Who Got In
Your child sits down for live talks and unfiltered Q&As with current undergraduates who've secured internships, placements and graduate roles at firms like these.
Logos shown represent firms where speaking undergraduates have secured roles. FinTech Teens is independent and not affiliated with or endorsed by these organisations.
Built to bridge the gap school doesn't.
FinTech Teens was founded on a simple belief: young people should explore the worlds of finance, economics, technology and data before they reach university or the workplace.
Created by a King's College London Economics student and an Amazon Data Analyst, the programme bridges the gap between classroom learning and the skills increasingly valued in today's economy. Many students study economics, business and maths at school, yet rarely see how those subjects connect to real industries, emerging technology and future careers.
Our in-person workshops combine interactive lessons, collaborative problem-solving, presentation skills and practical activities. Rather than relying on traditional teaching, we encourage your child to think critically, work in teams and apply concepts to realistic scenarios — including how to approach applications, internships and degree apprenticeships.
We're not just teaching content. We're helping your child develop curiosity, confidence and the ability to think analytically about the world around them.
