On March 23, 2027, we meet again in Amsterdam for our sixth Dutch meetup, bringing together around 130 attendees for engaging discussions and lively debates in the networking.
Building on the discussions we began in Luxembourg, we will continue to explore our fresh theme of "Beyond Boundaries", where we will focus on the future operating model of banks and the strategic choices they face in an increasingly intelligent economy.
The industry has spent years transforming technology, but the next challenge is reimagining business models. Banks must determine how they create value in ecosystems, how they leverage AI responsibly, how they remain relevant as financial services become increasingly embedded and how they move from product-centric thinking towards outcome-based relationships with customers.
Conversations will explore the implications of AI on leadership and decision-making, the rise of agentic banking, the evolution of Open Finance, ecosystem partnerships, customer-centric innovation and the future role of financial institutions within broader economic networks. The central question is how banks can remain indispensable when financial services become increasingly invisible.
NEW FOR 2027 - dedicated payments track.
In parallel with the banking discussions, we will also include a dedicated payments perspective. Payments are rapidly evolving from a functional service into a strategic capability that shapes customer experience, commerce and economic activity. Discussions will examine the future of payment infrastructures, emerging payment models, European sovereignty in payments, cross-border innovation and the growing convergence between payments, data and digital identity.
This conference will bring together industry leaders, innovators, and visionaries to discuss and debate top-of-mind topics for banking and financial services professionals.
Engage in thought-provoking discussions, gain insights from pioneering experts, national and international thought-leaders and visionaries.
Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of the transformation that is redefining the future of banking.
