Our purpose and strategy
Our purpose is Helping Britain Prosper.
We believe better collaboration with fintechs and insurtechs is key to delivering exceptional service and enhancing our capabilities.
Launch 2024 is a five month collaborative Innovation programme offering rapid experimentation with access to subject matter experts and free business masterclasses.
Successful applicants will work with subject matter experts and dedicated Launch Programme colleagues to refine and test value propositions to solve key strategic business challenges. These bespoke proposals will be pitched to the relevant Challenge sponsors and senior leaders, giving applicants the chance to run a proof of concept in partnership with Lloyds Banking Group.
Lloyds Banking Group want to be:
