hundred metres from the Global Fintech Fest venue and two hours before the conference opens.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"tags\">\n  <li><span class=\"tag t-peri\">Event<\/span><\/li>\n  <li><span class=\"tag

Wednesday 10 September 2026, 8:00 to 10:00 AM, BKC Mumbai, roughly 200 metres from the Global Fintech Fest venue. Twenty founders and operators across product, engineering and security. No decks, no pitches, no panel. One table, a proper Mumbai breakfast, and the conversations you cannot have in a hallway between sessions. By invitation only.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<p>Two hours with twenty builders beats two days of business cards. Global Fintech Fest brings the industry to Mumbai for a few genuinely full days, and this is the quiet couple of hours before all of it starts.<\/p>\n\n<h2 id=\"details\">The details<\/h2>\n\n<table class=\"h-peri\">\n  <thead>\n    <tr><th>Detail<\/th><th><\/th><\/tr>\n  <\/thead>\n  <tbody>\n    <tr><td>Date<\/td><td>Wednesday 10 September 2026<\/td><\/tr>\n    <tr><td>Time<\/td><td>8:00 to 10:00 AM, before the conference opens<\/td><\/tr>\n    <tr><td>Place<\/td><td>BKC, Mumbai. Roughly 200 metres from the Global Fintech Fest venue<\/td><\/tr>\n    <tr><td>Hosts<\/td><td>Osto and Digia<\/td><\/tr>\n    <tr><td>Seats<\/td><td>20 founders and operators, by invitation only<\/td><\/tr>\n    <tr><td>Format<\/td><td>Breakfast around one table. No decks, no pitches, no panel<\/td><\/tr>\n  <\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n<h2 id=\"talk\" class=\"c-sage\">What we will actually talk about<\/h2>\n\n<p>Nothing is scheduled, which is the point. The subjects that come up when builders sit down together are fairly predictable, and they are the ones worth two hours.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"trio\">\n  <div class=\"tcard a\">\n    <p class=\"n\">Building and shipping<\/p>\n    <p class=\"g\">Product, engineering, AI<\/p>\n    <p>What you are actually running in production, what you tried that did not work, and where AI has genuinely changed how your team ships.<\/p>\n  <\/div>\n  <div class=\"tcard b\">\n    <p class=\"n\">Selling and scaling<\/p>\n    <p class=\"g\">GTM, hiring, growth<\/p>\n    <p>Go-to-market that works at your stage rather than someone else&#8217;s, and the hiring decisions you would make differently.<\/p>\n  <\/div>\n  <div class=\"tcard c\">\n    <p class=\"n\">Security and trust<\/p>\n    <p class=\"g\">Compliance, due diligence<\/p>\n    <p>The questionnaire that stalled a deal, the audit nobody budgeted for, and what a fintech buyer actually checks before signing.<\/p>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"callout\">\n  <p class=\"k\">Three questions, honestly answered<\/p>\n  <p>What is working. What is not. What we got wrong. The third one is the reason these rooms are worth showing up for, and it is the one that never gets said from a stage.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<h2 id=\"who\">Who this is for<\/h2>\n\n<p>Founders and leaders across product, engineering and security. If you are building a fintech or selling into one, the people around this table are dealing with the same regulatory questions, the same enterprise buyers and the same <a href=\"https:\/\/www.osto.one\/resources\/glossary\/vapt\/\">security due diligence<\/a> you are.<\/p>\n\n<p>It is a working breakfast, not a networking event. Twenty seats is deliberate. Past that number a table stops being a conversation and becomes an audience.<\/p>\n\n<h2 id=\"why\" class=\"c-plum\">Why we are doing it this way<\/h2>\n\n<p>Osto builds security and compliance for fast-moving teams, and Digia builds in the same market. Neither of us needs another booth conversation. What we do want is two hours with people who are solving the same problems at the same stage, before the conference floor opens and everybody scatters.<\/p>\n\n<p>So there is no agenda and there is nothing to sit through. Just a good table and, hopefully, a great conversation.<\/p>\n\n<h2 id=\"faq\">Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n\n<details>\n  <summary>Do I need a Global Fintech Fest pass to attend?<\/summary>\n  <p>No. The breakfast is a separate event held about 200 metres from the Global Fintech Fest venue. Most people joining are attending the conference afterwards, but a pass is not a requirement for the breakfast itself.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n<details>\n  <summary>Is there a cost?<\/summary>\n  <p>No. Breakfast is on us. The only thing we ask is that you turn up ready to talk about what is actually going on at your company rather than the version that goes in the deck.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n<details>\n  <summary>Will there be presentations or a panel?<\/summary>\n  <p>No decks, no pitches, no panel. Everyone is at one table and the conversation goes where the room takes it. Osto and Digia are hosting, not presenting.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n<details>\n  <summary>Who else will be there?<\/summary>\n  <p>Founders and leaders across product, engineering and security. There are 20 seats. We keep the list small on purpose so that everyone gets to speak rather than listen.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Osto and Digia are hosting an invite-only breakfast for 20 founders and operators in BKC on 10 September, two hundred\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":1114,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[51],"tags":[518,517,519,521,520],"class_list":["post-1113","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-announcement","tag-bkc-mumbai-fintech","tag-fintech-founders-event","tag-founders-breakfast-mumbai","tag-gff-mumbai-2026","tag-global-fintech-fest"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.osto.one\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1113","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.osto.one\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.osto.one\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.osto.one\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.osto.one\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1113"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.osto.one\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1113\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1115,"href":"https:\/\/www.osto.one\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1113\/revisions\/1115"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.osto.one\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1114"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.osto.one\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1113"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.osto.one\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1113"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.osto.one\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1113"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
