The FinCon scholarship program was created in 2016 to make the event more accessible to new Personal Finance content creators. In the years since we’ve been able to provide scholarships for over 250 creators.
We’re excited to continue the scholarship program this year!
And just like in previous years, at least 40% of scholarships are dedicated to those who represent or serve marginalized communities.
Our team also includes a Scholarship Concierge who helps recipients navigate their first FinCon experience so that they don’t miss a thing.
Who was eligible?
First-year Personal Finance bloggers, podcasters, YouTubers, advisors, freelancers, authors, social media influencers — anyone creating digital content in the Personal Finance space.
You must be a first-year creator who has begun consistently creating Personal Finance content on at least one public platform within the last year.
Plus, you have not been to a FinCon event before (including Women in Money and #FinConx) and are not currently registered for #FinCon23.
