Themes 2026
The New Financial Infrastructure : Autonomous, embedded, and built on trust
Agentic Fintech
From automation to autonomy - AI in financial services is moving beyond automating tasks towards autonomous, decision-making agents. This theme explores what agentic AI means for fintechs, banks and their customers — and how to deploy it responsibly and at scale.
Next-Gen Payments
Real-time, seamless, borderless - The next generation of payments is instant, invisible and increasingly cross-border. We look at the rails, technologies and models redefining how money moves for consumers and businesses alike.
Stablecoins, Tokenization & Digital Assets
The building blocks of the new financial system - Stablecoins, tokenised assets and digital currencies are becoming foundational infrastructure rather than fringe experiments. This theme examines how they are reshaping settlement, liquidity and the architecture of finance itself.
Embedded & Invisible Finance
When finance disappears into everything - Financial services are increasingly woven invisibly into the products and platforms people already use. We explore how embedded finance is turning finance into a native feature across retail, B2B and beyond.
Fintech in a Regulated World
Turning compliance into competitive edge - As regulation intensifies, the winners will be those who treat compliance as a design principle rather than an afterthought. This theme looks at how fintechs can build trust, navigate the regulatory landscape, and turn compliance into a genuine advantage.
