Jacksonville is a leading FinTech hub, and the addition of JAX Hub will accelerate our fast growth. We are excited to partner on this initiative that will bring in startups from around the world to spur innovation and collaboration with the leading FinTech companies that call Jacksonville home. It’s a testament to our growing business ties with the UK and sterling reputation as an industry powerhouse.
Today, at the Global Fintech Forum, Jacksonville took another major step onto the global stage with the announcement of JAX Hub — a bold new initiative from @LMarks and the @cityofjax. Set to launch later this year, JAX Hub will connect leading financial firms with global entrepreneurs and innovators to tackle major industry challenges and spark future opportunities, strengthening Jacksonville’s position as a rising leader in fintech. This milestone builds on the momentum of Jacksonville’s development missions to London and follows the 2023 MOU between the State of Florida and the UK Government, focused on growing trade and economic collaboration. Here’s what’s ahead with JAX Hub: 🌎 Elevating Jacksonville’s global fintech presence 🤝 Forging powerful connections between firms and entrepreneurs ⚡ Accelerating innovation and economic growth #JAXChamber #JAXUSApartnership #Jacksonville #EconomicDevelopment #FinTech #UKFW2025

It's been a great day at the beautiful @UVA, where I had the privilege to speak at @DardenMBA - amusingly, in Saunders Hall - about the opportunities, pitfalls, and secrets of corporate innovation.

The impact of our alumni company @wastelessltd, and their work with @DIA_Group, is featured in this BBC article today. Wasteless trialled their solution with DIA in our #NexusByDIA and it's brilliant to see it continue to deliver value for the supermarket! bbc.co.uk/news/business-6750… – at London, England

Terrorism cannot prevail. Tech is fundamental to any modern economy, not least in Israel – a linchpin of the global industry. Today, I’m asking the British tech industry to join us and support Israel through the horrors it faces. Together, we can rise to the challenge.

The people who support Hamas are fully responsible for this appalling attack. They are not militants. They are not freedom fighters. They are terrorists. My message tonight from Finchley United Synagogue where I joined @chiefrabbi in vigil with local communities.
