You have to move fast in modern technology: fintech is already passe. Apart from being a bubble (at least in the view of many analysts), tech savvy soothsayers and the occasional carpet bagger have already moved on to the next wave of digitally disruptive platforms, be they in agtech (agricultural technology), mining tech (smart technology for the resources industry) or regulatory technology.
