What are finance and fintech events?

Fintech and finance events are corporate gatherings, conferences, and expos where financial technology companies, banks, investors and regulators meet. The largest fintech events attract thousands of decision-makers from across global financial services.

For financial brands, these events can serve different purposes: from thought leadership and client engagement to networking, exhibition, product launches and industry education. Broadsword supports financial services organisations with event strategy, creative, production and event management across formats including banking conferences, investment summits, fintech events, financial sector exhibitions, leadership and client forums.

 

Why do major finance brands sponsor and exhibit?

When you sponsor and exhibit, you gain exposure to the largest network of industry professionals. Industry conferences and exhibitions allow you to share your expertise, messaging, and latest innovations with a captive, qualified audience.

 

Why London for finance and fintech events?

London is one of the world’s leading financial centres, bringing together global banks, financial institutions, fintech companies, investors, regulators and technology businesses; making it a hub for major finance and fintech events, conferences and exhibitions.

For businesses exhibiting or sponsoring an event, London also provides an opportunity to engage directly with senior decision-makers and industry specialists in a market with strong international connections. Major venues across the capital provide spaces for everything from intimate leadership forums and client events to large-scale conferences and exhibition experiences.
