tell me about the big fintech and games ones
If you look at, for example, the UK entries in [1] you'll find many of them are doing loans, payments, insurance and blockchain stuff.

(Admittedly, that list is using a definition of 'startup' broad enough to include the UK's second-largest energy supply company)
