Tenity, a leading early-stage FinTech investor and accelerator, has announced the latest cohort of startups joining its European FinTech Accelerator programme.

The company has selected ten startups from a pool of 433 applications, each set to receive up to €300k in funding alongside resources and market access support. Strategic partners such as UBS, SIX, and Ripple are among those offering connections and expertise to accelerate the companies’ growth across Europe.

Tenity’s accelerator provides a combination of capital, hands-on mentoring, and access to key financial hubs including Zurich, London, and Copenhagen. The programme runs for four months, from August 25 to December 5, 2025, and incorporates four in-person masterclass weeks focusing on product development, fundraising readiness, and international expansion strategies.

The new cohort spans a diverse range of sectors, including regulatory technology, insurance, wealth management, infrastructure, banking and web3, investing, and even quantum finance.

One of the startups is eIDeasy, which helps simplify digital identity and eSignature integration through an API platform.

Vinlivt, which helps insurers onboard and manage portfolios, and Swisspaytech, which supports payments through Telegram, have also joined the accelerator.

Other companies in the cohort include SME acquisition firm Equis, DeFi layer infrastructure CrypDefi, cloud provider for data centres WarrenCloud, AI-powered enterprise procurement solution Groundley, contract-centric finance platform Ariadne, AI operating system for wealth management WealthAI, and short-term predictions platform Quantum Signals.

Andrea Fritschi, managing partner & CFO at Tenity said, “This cohort reflects the depth and maturity we’re looking for in the European fintech landscape. At Tenity, we don’t just invest capital, we partner with founders to build enduring, scalable companies. With this group, we see the potential to shape the future of financial services across borders and beyond silos.”

Guillermo Forteza, investment lead, Europe (INC II), Tenity added, “What stands out is the diversity and depth of innovation. These are not just ideas, but scalable solutions with the power to transform the financial ecosystem — and we are excited to help them make it happen.”
