The financial landscape is undergoing a seismic shift, fueled by the convergence of two powerful forces: Financial Technology (Fintech), and Artificial Intelligence (AI). This dynamic duo is poised to revolutionize the way we interact with money, manage investments, and shape the future of finance.


Inspired by this transformative potential, I saw the need to bring like-minded people together, and further catalyze the movement, and the marketplace.


Yes, I am doing it again, I have decided to embark on a journey to create a groundbreaking new event dedicated to exploring the innovative, new possibilities that will emerge from the intersection of these two potent technologies.


More than any other industry, financial services stands to benefit most from the integration of AI. In this blog I'll delve into the inspiration behind this venture, and my vision for an event that moves the needle, and redefines financial intelligence.

My passion for fintech stems from its ability to democratize finance, making financial services accessible and inclusive for all. These capabilities and characteristics are what compelled me to create the Social Mobile Payments Conference back in 2010, the nascent days of mobile payments, 4G wireless networks, and social media.


But, financial technology in union with artificial intelligence will dwarf the convergence we focused on in previous events. For in the intertwining of these tools, lies the key to our utopian future. A future where no question goes unanswered, and no doubt as to a person's ability to pay for goods and services.


Trillions, if not quadrillions will be poured into AI - Sam Altman is currently raising trillions, just for the chip fabrication needed to support our future AI infrastructure. This is not a trend, this is a tsunami, a tidal wave of technology that will wash over us, transforming the world as we know it today.

If I have learned nothing else in my life, I have learned that technology has the power to break down barriers, and empower individuals to take control of their lives and financial well-being. However, the complexities of the financial world can often be daunting, leaving many feeling overwhelmed, and unsure where to begin.
