5 Things to Love About FinovateSpring This Year

5 Things to Love About FinovateSpring This Year

FinovateSpring is two weeks away! From May 18 through May 20, Finovate will bring its annual spring fintech conference to San Francisco, California for three days of live, IN PERSON, demos, keynotes, fireside chats, panel discussions, and debates.

To whet your appetite for our upcoming event, here are five reasons why we’re convinced that FinovateSpring 2022 is the must-attend fintech conference of the moment.


Live in San Francisco!

First and foremost: FinovateSpring 2022 will be live and in-person! For the first time since 2019, our annual spring fintech conference will feature live, in-person demos, in-person speakers, and – most importantly – live, in-person delegates and attendees. This year, we are expecting more than 1,100 senior attendees, more than 50% of whom are from financial institutions. Plus, representatives from each of the top 10 banks in the U.S. will be at the show.

Demo Newcomers!

Finovate events are a great opportunity to catch up with old friends and favorite companies. They are also an ideal time to meet new friends and new, innovative fintechs. This year, FinovateSpring will feature a number of new speakers, new formats like our Fintech Fight Club, Startup Booster Session, and Finovate Unicorn Power Panel. FinovateSpring 2022 also will host 30 companies making their Finovate debuts. Stay tuned for more on these Finovate newcomers!

Start-Up Booster!

Finovate events have helped shine a light on up-n-coming fintech startups with our Finovate Accelerator Showcases. This spring, we’re taking our commitment to supporting fintech startups to another level with our special Finovate Fintech Startup Booster program. This session will give fintech founders an opportunity to network with early stage fintech investors via pre-booked, one-to-one meetings. Make connections! Gain insights! And watch this space for more information on how to be a part of this unique opportunity for startups and the investors who fund them.

Special Sessions: Fintech Fight Club! Women in Fintech!

In addition to two days of live, in-person fintech demos and three days of insightful keynotes, fireside chats, discussions, and debates, FinovateSpring is hosting a handful of special sessions to help focus on critical topics in fintech. These sessions include our Fintech Fight Club and the return of our Women in Fintech session. Fintech Fight Club will feature a quartet of industry experts tackling some of the most challenging and controversial concepts in fintech. Our Women in Fintech session will focus on how to invest in women to pave the way for the next generation of leaders. Both sessions are 100% “can’t miss.”

Fintech’s Finest!

Saving the best for last, the most important reason to be a part of FinovateSpring is you: the financial services professional, the fintech enthusiast, the people who make our events such a rewarding opportunity for networking, exchanging ideas, and making key contacts. As much as we enjoyed the energy and enthusiasm that attendees expressed with our return to in-person events for FinovateEurope in London in March, we can’t wait to see what FinovateSpring in San Francisco has in store for us in just two weeks time.
