When you’re building tech to solve real-world problems—whether it’s reinventing payments, streamlining healthcare billing, or building the next financial platform—your team needs more than just talent. You need trust, creativity, and the ability to tackle challenges together.
That’s why Cedar, one of NYC’s leading healthcare fintech innovators, chose Secret City Scavenger Hunts for their latest team-building event. They didn’t settle for another forgettable happy hour or “forced fun” activity—they went for something smarter.
Why Fintech Teams Need Better Team Building
Innovation doesn’t happen in a vacuum. It happens when people step out of their routines and work together in new ways. For fintech teams (developers, product managers, designers, sales, and ops alike), that means getting outside the office, solving fresh problems, and actually collaborating.
Cedar’s crew dove headfirst into our scavenger hunt at the American Museum of Natural History. They raced through exhibits, cracked codes, and put their brains (and teamwork) to the test—no Slack channels or sprint retros required.
Cedar’s Mission: Making Medical Billing Easy
If you’ve ever tried to pay a medical bill and ended up confused (or angry), you’ll appreciate Cedar’s mission. Their tech platform makes healthcare billing simple, transparent, and user-friendly—cutting through industry red tape and giving people real control over their payments. It’s a classic fintech problem: take something old and broken, and make it seamless.
What Makes Secret City Scavenger Hunts Different?
Plenty of team-building options in NYC promise “engagement,” but how many actually deliver?
At Secret City, our live, hosted scavenger hunts challenge teams to communicate, think creatively, and solve problems together—while having a genuinely great time. You’ll see sides of your colleagues you never knew existed (and maybe even a T. rex or two).
Real Impact, Real Results
For Cedar, this wasn’t just an afternoon out. It was a real-world test of the same skills that drive their business: collaboration, communication, and creative thinking. Their teams left with stronger bonds, shared stories, and a sense of accomplishment that doesn’t disappear the moment you’re back at your desk.
If you’re a fintech company in NYC looking for the best team-building event—one that actually delivers results and memories—Secret City Scavenger Hunts is your answer.
