Ready for Kick Off! Fintech Week London unveils striking new venue to spur sector

Fintech Week London returns for its third year in June, bringing together some of the most influential players in the fintech industry. The highly-anticipated week-long program will once again feature a two-day conference running between 19-20 June – this year held at the innovative Tottenham Hotspur Stadium – as well as the hotly contested Fintech Awards London 2023.

The flagship event will bring together international leaders from the worlds of fintech and financial services in London, a primary global hub for both sectors. In doing so, Fintech Week London will provide attendees with exceptional learning and networking opportunities, leveraging the venue’s unique layout and unrivaled high-tech event and hospitality spaces, as well as offering unparalleled access to the city’s fintech elite. At its core, the event aims to cultivate new partnerships between business leaders at a moment of significant need.

By choosing to host this year’s event at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Fintech Week London has chosen a venue that is uniquely positioned to foster partnerships and new industry connections. The flagship venue offers a variety of breakout areas, which include both open layout logs as well as private (closed door) suites to be used for one-on-one meetings. Attendees can also benefit from several exciting experiential activities, including stadium tours and ‘The Dare Skywalk’, the UK’s first controlled descent from a stadium roof.

Alongside discussing the difficulties associated with the current economic picture, the leading fintech event will cover some of the most prevalent topics affecting the sector right now, including the rise of embedded financing solutions, the growing importance of fintech for good and the ever-growing role of cryptocurrencies in our daily lives. With a mission to help the sector move from “Flux to Flow”, leading experts and speakers will explore these impactful topics plus many more prominent industry issues.

In addition, the event will put a specific focus on the power of fintech in London, as well as the state of fintech funding. The latter theme will be supported with a detailed review from Fintech Week London itself, which will be published during the event. Rather than shying away from challenging discussions, the event will tackle the most prominent issues affecting fintech and financial services right now.

The first group of speakers will be announced immediately, with senior decision makers from leading fintechs, banks, investment firms, regulators, media companies and service providers to be included. Bringing together players from high street banks to challengers, technology giants to disruptors, the event is uniquely placed to host important, high-stakes discussions critical to the further development of both sectors.

Raf De Kimpe, CEO of Fintech Week London, commented on the event: “Last year we welcomed over 800 attendees to Fintech Week London, including the Mayor of Chicago, Lori Lightfoot. This year we want to go further than ever before and aim to deliver an unmissable, landmark event for individuals working across fintech and financial services at the stunning Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

“Ultimately, no modern venue fits the Fintech Week London ethos better than the state-of-the-art stadium, which combines award-winning hospitality with digital-first connectivity. The arena allows us to offer attendees new and exciting opportunities for networking and collaborative activities via the stadium’s many breakout areas, as well as a number of unique experiences, such as the skywalk and stadium tours, which will help inject some much-needed relaxation into what is set to be a busy week.”

The event has already announced some of the exciting speakers taking to the stage, including Louise Hill, Co-Founder and COO of GoHenry, Simon Boonen, Fintech Lead at ING, Gihan AM Hyde, CEO of Communique and David M. Brear, CEO of 11:FS .
