Meetings that matter

With 2,000+ attendees, it can be hard to speak to everyone you want to build a connection with. With 10+ hours of dedicated networking time, it’s easy to connect with the people you want to meet.

Organic networking is common, but with the ConnectMe platform, it’s easy to find people and book meetings, too. Create your own profile, search other attendee profiles, and schedule meetings right in the app. The ConnectMe Lounge with designated numbered tables makes it easy to take meetings from the app to the real world.

Can’t find time to connect on site? No worries, you can trade info and set up calls after the event, too.

Connect with innovators

At FinovateFall, you'll see a large number of innovations in a short space of time. Meet the founders and teams who caught your interest in the networking break following their demo session. Join them at their demo stands for a deeper dive or schedule meetings with them through ConnectMe.

Note: Demo companies have a stand only on the day of their demo -- September 8 or 9. If you miss a company at their stand, you can easily reach them through the ConnectMe platform.

Discussion roundtables

Interactive discussion tables, led by an industry expert, will allow you to explore some of the hottest topics in the industry with your peers.* Join tables discussing . . .

  1. How can banks optimize the three pillars of banking – Deposits, loans, and money movement?
  2. Leveraging trust to grow customer loyalty & revenue – What do banks need to do?
  3. Harnessing advanced AI to deliver adaptive customer service – What do you need to know?

*To allow for open debate, tables will run under the Chatham House Rule.

Have a drink on us

After content ends in the early afternoon, join us for a drink!*

It's a great chance to make informal and formal connections: Bump into an old colleague, make a new connection, or set up a quick meeting through the event platform.

Don't miss this perfect opportunity to unwind and network in a relaxed setting—your next big idea might just start with a casual conversation!

Drinks reception in Exhibit Hall on September 8-9 and in the auditorium foyer on September 10.
