#TBSCONF26BXL - May 25, 2027 - Silo, Brussels

On May 25, 2027, our flagship event — and Belgium’s largest banking conference — moves to our new venue at SILO, Brussels, for our special 10-year anniversary edition, bringing together more than 450 senior professionals for a full day of strategic dialogue, insight and high-level networking.

Once again, we will be all under one roof, with three dedicated content tracks covering Banking, Payments, and Fraud & Compliance. Each track runs alongside exhibition booths and a central networking area, ensuring interaction is not an afterthought but a central part of the experience.

The banking stage will focus on the strategic future of financial institutions. Discussions will address how banks create value beyond products, how AI is reshaping organisations, how institutions can remain relevant in society and how they can balance commercial success with broader responsibilities towards customers and communities. The stage will explore not only what banks do, but why they matter.

The payments stage will focus on the role of payments as critical economic infrastructure. Payments have become increasingly invisible in customer journeys, yet their importance continues to grow. Discussions will examine the future of European payment systems, digital identity, embedded commerce, cross-border interoperability and the strategic importance of payments for economic competitiveness and sovereignty. The central theme will be that payments are no longer simply transactions; they are the connective tissue of modern economies.

The fraud stage will focus on one of the defining challenges facing financial services and society as a whole. Fraud has evolved from an operational risk into a systemic threat, amplified by AI, digital platforms and increasingly sophisticated criminal networks. Banks, payment providers, regulators and technology companies are all grappling with questions of accountability, collaboration and prevention. Discussions will explore how AI can be used both by fraudsters and defenders, how institutions can collaborate more effectively, how liability models may evolve and how trust can be protected in an increasingly digital world.

Throughout the day, C-level executives, Chief Strategy Officers, Chief Digital Officers, Chief Risk & Compliance Officers, innovation leaders and regulators from across Europe will take the stage to move beyond surface-level narratives.

This conference is not about isolated trends. It is about systemic choices.

Network with peers who are shaping the strategic direction of banking in Belgium and beyond. Engage in discussions that challenge assumptions. Contribute to defining what relevance truly means in the 21st century.

Join us in Brussels and be part of the conversation that is redefining the future of banking.
