Join us on April 3-4, 2025, for the 2025 Fintech Conference: Bank-Fintech Partnerships, Distributed Ledger Technology, Regulation and Fintech Innovation to learn from top experts from industry, academia, and regulatory authorities as they engage in rich discussions about the latest trends and innovations in the fintech industry.
The conference will be held at the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, located at 101 Market Street in downtown San Francisco, and will provide opportunities for in-person attendees to network and engage in conversations with fintech experts and thought leaders.
The rapid advance of financial technology (fintech) is reshaping the global financial ecosystem. Innovation in digital infrastructure, tokenization, blockchain, and artificial intelligence is revolutionizing how financial services are delivered. These advances create opportunities for expanding access to banking services and market efficiency but also create new risks within the banking system.
This annual conference, the fourth one co-hosted by the organizing institutions, seeks to convene leading academics, industry experts, and regulators for a robust exchange of perspectives on opportunities and challenges posed by novel activities involving innovative technologies. The primary goal is to bridge the gap between innovation and regulation, fostering collaboration and understanding on the cutting-edge trends shaping the fintech landscape. By creating a platform for dialogue, we aim to explore how innovation can thrive in a regulated environment while ensuring a safe and sound financial system.
Thematic discussions will include bank-fintech partnerships, distributed ledger technology (DLT), tokenization, and innovation in regulation. Through a mix of academic paper presentations and panel discussions, this conference aims to shape the future of fintech by encouraging evidence-based insights, policy recommendations, and practical solutions.
The option to attend the conference virtually on Zoom is also available.
