By Andrea Sorrentino, modefinance COO and CTO

“Once again, Italian excellence shines in Paris, with modefinance proudly selected as one of the 3 companies awarded as ‘Stars of FinTech’ by the EDFA, the European Fintech Association.

During the Fintech R:Evolution 2024 event, held last Thursday, modefinance was recognized as one of the “Stars of FinTech”. This recognition, achieved as the only Italian company to be awarded, fills us with pride, both as Italians and as members of an extraordinary team. Fintech R:Evolution is one of the key events for the French fintech scene, and this award highlights the international appreciation for our innovative vision and our ongoing commitment to the industry.

What makes this recognition even more significant, in my opinion, is modefinance’s ability to stand out not only as a Rating Agency but also as a cutting-edge technology company. Our strength lies in the synergy between financial expertise and technological innovation, and this award shows that versatility is a key factor for success, even beyond our borders.

The Fintech R:Evolution, one of the most significant events for the sector in France, brings together entrepreneurs, decision-makers, investors, and regulators. For us, it represents a valuable opportunity to connect, learn new strategies, and continue to grow. The focus on companies with the potential to become global leaders fills us with pride and reinforces our vision of innovation and leadership.

Reflecting on our journey, I recall when modefinance was just an idea. It was 2009, and our goal was clear: to combine advanced technology with credit risk analysis to create something new. Today, after years of evolution, we have become an international player, with proprietary methodologies that allow us to evaluate over 300 million companies and 65,000 banks worldwide. This award is a testament to the solid foundation we have built over time.

As our Co-Founders, Mattia Ciprian and Valentino Pediroda, often say, “It’s not just about innovating for the sake of it.” At modefinance, we are driven by the desire to make a difference by creating practical tools for businesses. Through our solutions, companies can analyze their economic and financial health, assess sustainability with an ESG approach, and effectively manage credit risk. The recognition received here in Paris confirms that we are on the right track.

This award represents not only our success but also the future we are building. It gives us the motivation to continue pushing the boundaries of what fintech can achieve.
