If you’re already registered for FinovateEurope, taking place the 22nd and 23rd of March, you get it. Attending the industry’s premier demo show, whether in-person or digitally, grants you access to the best minds in fintech. Not only this, but also the depth and variety of content will set you up to make the best partnerships and crush the competition in 2022.
But regardless of whether you’re a die-hard Finovate fan who is coming to the event or if you’re simply curious to see what the event is all about, here are five reasons you need to be there.
Live and in person (plus a digital option)
We held our first in-person event since the pandemic last fall and we are thrilled to continue in-person events this year, as well. Seeing industry colleagues not only energizes us, it also offers room for spontaneous interactions that simply are not possible via video.
That said, if you’re not able to attend physically, we have a digital option for almost all of the content. In fact, we even have a bonus, digital-only day on March 15 that will feature a keynote, a fireside chat, and a power panel.
Sustainable approach
We are committed to running events which are both environmentally sustainable and socially responsible. Under our new FasterForward approach, we have embarked on a series of activities and commitments to ensure our events become more sustainable while also helping our partners and customers achieve the same. Specifically, we are aiming to become carbon neutral across our events by 2025, cut the waste generated through our events in half by 2025, and embed sustainability inside 100% of our events by 2025.
Speaker lineup
You won’t want to miss hearing our lineup of experts take the stage! We’ll have two full days of content plus the opportunity to network with some of the top names in fintech, including Chris Skinner, CEO of The Finanser; Louise Beaumont, Chair of the Open Finance and Payments Working Group at techUK; Olivier Guilaumond, Global Head of ING Labs and FinTechs at ING; and more. Be part of our audience to see the future of finance first.
You, our audience
When it comes down to what truly makes our shows great, it’s you, our audience. Fortunately, our agenda has a lot of built-in opportunities to network with your best fintech friends, meet new ones, and hold meetings crucial to your firm’s operations.
This year, we’ll host two special networking sessions, including a Women in Fintech Executive Boardroom presentation on Tuesday and an Ask Me Anything Q&A session with Inma Martinez, Author of The Fifth Industrial Revolution.
We’re back in London
After hosting FinovateEurope in Berlin in 2020 (just days before the pandemic hit), we’re headed back to London, our flagship location for FinovateEurope. This year’s event will take place at the Intercontinental O2, a new location for us. The expansive venue will offer us plenty of elbow room and is minutes from Canary Wharf, the headquarters location for many fintech startups.
