What a year it’s been. It started with the announcement of our €110 million round of funding led by TCV, whose investments include Netflix and Spotify, and is ending with the announcement of a €235 million round E funding led by EQT, coming full circle. Mambu has reached a €4.9 billion valuation and all Mambuvians will now have a stake in the company’s future growth as shareholders, thanks to a recently launched programme aptly called Equity for all as announced by co-founder and CEO Eugene Danilkis.

But we’ve had an action-packed year beyond the news headlines.

We got to the heart of what consumers from all over the world want from banking, thanks to our Disruption Diaries reports, Evolve or be extinct and Embedded Finance: who will win the battle for the next digital revolution, just to name three.

We shared our insights in 211 global events: digital, face to face, hybrid, podcasts, round tables and webinars - communicating our goal to make banking better.

We raised issues that are close to our values, joining the cultural conversation about hybrid work solutions, diversity and representation in finance. And we improved our stance on sustainability.

In 2021 we’ve also added 64 new partners to our existing ecosystem, either as consultants, system integrators or technology partners and continue to collaborate with more than 200 customers in more than 50 countries to deliver great financial experiences to people all over the world. And we’ve welcomed 400+ new Mambuvians either in our offices or remote!

Thank you all for a great year. 2022, here we come!
