FinTech Club
The Darden FinTech Club is a student-led organization focused on driving awareness, education, and career development in the rapidly evolving world of financial technology. We are committed to fostering a vibrant community for those interested in the intersection of finance and innovation — from payments and blockchain to AI-driven investment strategies, embedded finance, and beyond.
Our mission is to equip members with the insights, skills, and connections needed to excel in FinTech and related industries. We offer a range of programming, including speaker events, technical workshops, alumni panels, and company treks, to give students exposure to the latest trends and key players in the space.
A core pillar of the club is career and recruitment support, which we deliver by working closely with members to prepare for internships and full-time roles — through resume reviews, interview prep, and personalized guidance.
Whether you're passionate about disrupting traditional banking, building the future of payments, or exploring how data is transforming credit, the Darden FinTech Club provides a platform to learn, connect, and lead. We welcome students of all backgrounds to join us in shaping the future of finance.
