Money20/20 Europe Unveils 2026 Agenda Focused on AI, Digital Assets and Regulation

Money20/20, the world’s leading fintech show and the place where money does business, returns to Amsterdam on June 2–4 at the RAI, bringing together the global leaders defining the next era of financial services.

As financial systems continue to evolve under the impact of AI innovation, digital assets, and accelerating regulatory change, Money20/20 Europe 2026 will explore how these forces are reshaping the infrastructure of money itself. The event will feature 450+ speakers across six stages and introduce a content agenda structured around four defining pillars of transformation.

 

Four Pillars Defining the Future of Money

The 2026 agenda is built around four core themes capturing the most important shifts in global finance:

AI and the Agentic Age: exploring how autonomous systems are transforming decision-making, financial services, and customer experience.

The Great Rebundling: examining the shift toward seamless, integrated financial ecosystems that replace fragmented services with end-to-end platforms.

Money Stack Rewired: highlighting the rapid evolution of financial infrastructure, including the rise of stablecoins, tokenization, and next-generation payment rails.

Regulation in the Fast Lane: examining how financial regulation is evolving in response to rapid technological innovation across AI, digital assets, and payments infrastructure.

 

Regulation in the Fast Lane: Navigating Rapid Policy Evolution

This pillar explores how accelerating innovation across financial services is intersecting with evolving regulatory frameworks. As technologies such as AI, digital assets, and new payment infrastructures continue to advance, policymakers and industry leaders are adapting in parallel to maintain stability, ensure compliance, and support market integrity.

Sessions within this track will focus on how regulatory approaches are responding to the pace of financial innovation, and how institutions are navigating increasingly complex cross-border compliance environments while continuing to scale new products and services.

The discussions reflect a broader shift in global finance: regulation is becoming increasingly interconnected with innovation cycles, shaping how new technologies are introduced, governed, and adopted across markets.

Featured Speaker Lineup

Newly confirmed speakers include a powerhouse cross-section of leaders shaping the future of payments, banking, and financial services, representing institutions such as Klarna, BBVA, ABN AMRO, Mastercard, eToro, and Revolut, alongside additional leaders from across banking, payments, digital assets, and financial infrastructure.

These leaders represent the ongoing convergence of financial services, where traditional banking, payments innovation, and digital asset ecosystems are increasingly interconnected.

 

The Intersection Stage

A key focus of this year’s event is the growing convergence between traditional finance and decentralized ecosystems. As banks, payment providers, and blockchain-native companies increasingly intersect, Money20/20 Europe will highlight how these domains are reshaping the global financial system.

The Intersection Stage will explore stablecoins, digital assets, tokenization, cybersecurity, and cross-border payments, bringing together builders, policymakers, and financial institutions shaping the next phase of global financial infrastructure.

 

Enhanced Experience Across the Ecosystem

Attendees can expect a more immersive and expanded experience this year. Alongside the new Intersection Stage, the agenda introduces the Orbital Stage and MoneyLab workshops, designed to deepen technical and strategic discussions across financial services.

The Startup Hub expands significantly, featuring a larger stage and exhibition space, alongside a growing cohort of founders showcasing emerging technologies. The Startup Pitch Competition returns, with last year’s winner, Sinpex, participating again with an expanded presence.

A new Investor Area will facilitate high-value meetings between venture capital firms and startups, while the invite-only Policy20 Summit on Day One will provide access to critical regulatory discussions shaping the future of global finance.
