Payment and financial services innovation takes center stage when Money20/20 Europe convenes in Copenhagen for three days commencing June 26, 2017. The gathering represents the largest assembly of its kind globally, uniting decision-makers and disruptors reshaping how consumers and organizations manage their finances.
The focus will "monopolize the attention of the entire global financial services ecosystem, with a focus on what the future of money holds for the year ahead," according to Tracey Davies, Money20/20's managing director. This year's Copenhagen conference delivers an unmatched combination of scale, participant caliber and substantive programming.
Approximately 400 industry experts and innovators will address audiences across some 120 distinct tracks and sessions. The programming examines pivotal emerging subjects spanning artificial intelligence, massive data analysis, corporate-to-corporate payment solutions, financial access expansion, blockchain systems, alternative lending, and adjacent innovations.
Major payment processors Visa and MasterCard will attend, alongside technology giants Samsung and Amazon. Western Union and Overstock.com round out the established corporate presence. Several high-growth fintech ventures—TransferWise, Klarna, Ant Financial, Digital Asset, Atom Bank and Tandem—will have representatives in attendance.
Pat Patel, the event's content curator, described the rationale for speaker selection: "Our goal with this agenda was to identify the leaders and innovators shaping the future of money. In addition to content focused purely on developments in payments and banking, our coverage will include cutting-edge and real world applications of the blockchain, the sharing economy, virtual reality and the Internet of Things. The premise behind this is to create a dialogue across different industry verticals with the aim of continually pushing forward the boundaries encompassing the financial services and payments sector."
The previous year's Copenhagen conference attracted 3,725 participants from 1,500 enterprises across 70 countries. Five hundred were company executives. The 2016 program included 422 speakers, secured more than 200 sponsor partnerships and established ties with over 100 media outlets.
Originating in the United States in 2011, Money20/20 functions as the globe's preeminent fintech conference series. The organization is expanding regionally, with Money20/20 Asia launching in Singapore beginning March 2018.
