Fintech startups
From seed to Series B
Support before launch, funding announcements and ongoing press relations as your company grows.
Who we help
Different companies need different reasons to talk to the press.
We work with four kinds of client. The approach changes with the company, its audience and what the business needs next.
Founder-led businesses
Building personal brand and authority
We find the subjects you can speak about with authority, then pitch your comments, interviews and bylines to relevant journalists.
Scaling companies
Needing consistent media presence
A planned programme of announcements, comments and interviews between funding rounds, so coverage does not stop after one launch.
UHNW individuals & family offices
Private wealth, private funds and philanthropy
We work under NDA, avoid mass press lists and agree every approach with you. Nothing is published without your sign-off.
Why Neza
You work with the person doing the pitching.
“Direct access to the person responsible for your coverage.”
Direct contact
The person who interviews you also writes the pitch and speaks to journalists. Questions do not get passed through account layers.
Fintech knowledge
We can discuss regulation, payment rails and unit economics with you, then explain them clearly in a journalist briefing.
A clear scope
We agree the work before we start and record each approach. You can see what was sent, to whom and what happened next.

What clients say about the work
Neza found the point in our raise that journalists cared about. We had three tier-one conversations before the announcement went live.
The interview briefs were sharper than anything our previous agency produced in a year. We went into each conversation prepared.
Six months into the programme, journalists come to us for comment. We have a clear story and keep in contact between announcements.
