#TBSARTNIGHT25 - November 17, 2025 - Plein Publiek, Brussels

Sprouted after the pandemic, The Banking Scene Art Night became the must-go evening event of The Banking Scene, welcoming 130 attendees last year, of which 50% were from the banking industry.

On 17 November, The Banking Scene invites you to a truly unique evening at Plein Publiek, where banking meets imagination, and creativity inspires new ways of thinking about finance.

Art Night is not your typical industry event. It’s an evening of curated inspiration, where we momentarily set aside KPIs and compliance to reconnect with the why behind financial services. In this immersive setting, we will explore “Reinventing The Art of The Possible”—a theme that dares us to challenge conventions and envision what lies beyond today’s constraints.

We announced our first confirmed speakers: Thomas Vles, Founder & CEO of GoDutch and Emmy-Award-Winning AI Filmmaker, Lisa Russell, CEO and Founder of ArtsEnvoy.ai, who will fly over from Mombassa to share inspirational stories of "Reinventing the Art of the Possible".

Expect an eclectic mix of art, conversation, and introspection, designed to spark new perspectives on the role of finance in society. The programme features thought-provoking voices and creative interventions that blur the lines between art and industry, policy and purpose.

Whether you're a banker, policymaker, fintech thinker, or someone simply intrigued by the crossroads of ethics and innovation, this night is for those who believe that sometimes, to move forward, we need to step sideways.

Secure your seat today and get ready to experience finance from a completely different angle.

This is what The Banking Scene Art Night 2025 was like:
