Company announces investments in platform innovation, customer experience and international growth strategy ahead of its 2027 event
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / June 23, 2026 / Fintech Meetup, the most anticipated financial technology event, attended by more than 5,000 professionals, including over 1,000 CEOs and founders, and representatives from more than 700 financial institutions, today unveiled "Built on Trust" as the theme for Fintech Meetup 2027, which will take place February 22 - 24, 2027, at The Venetian Las Vegas.
The "Built on Trust" theme comes at a pivotal moment across the fintech, financial services and digital assets landscape. As AI continues to reshape the industry, fraud becomes increasingly sophisticated and regulatory expectations continue to evolve, trust is emerging as one of the industry's most important sources of competitive advantage.
"No matter where you sit in the fintech ecosystem or the nature of your business, success increasingly depends on trust," said Louisa Hunter, President of Fintech Meetup. "Organizations are looking for partners they can rely on, technologies they can confidently adopt and relationships that help them move faster in a complex market. 'Built on Trust' reflects both where the industry is heading and the role Fintech Meetup plays in bringing together the people and companies shaping its future."
Through the industry's largest and most intelligent meetings program, Fintech Meetup helps organizations identify the partners best suited to their unique goals, priorities and ambitions. The event brings together fintechs, financial institutions, retailers, and investors through a double opt-in meetings program designed to deliver meaningful connections at scale and drive real business outcomes.
More than 40,000 in-person meetings were scheduled by the platform for Fintech Meetup 2026, and the business is investing in driving even greater value in 2027.
For Fintech Meetup, trust extends beyond the trends shaping the industry. It is also a guiding principle behind how the company continues to evolve its own event experience. As the event has grown, Fintech Meetup has remained committed to providing exceptional ROI for attendees, sponsors and partners.
As part of its growth strategy for 2027, Fintech Meetup is rolling out significant enhancements to its market-leading meetings program. This includes seamless technology and onsite experience, expanded participation among financial institutions, retailers, and investors, and additions to its startup pitch competition. Sponsors will also be provided with enhanced tools to manage and optimize their business development programs. Together, these initiatives are designed to help participants uncover valuable new opportunities, develop strong relationships, and achieve exceptional business outcomes.
The company also plans to further expand its international footprint, including expansion into Europe, as it builds on the momentum of its U.S. events and strengthens its position as a connector of the global fintech ecosystem.
"The growth of Fintech Meetup across the U.S. and our expansion into Europe underscore the strength, resilience and continued evolution of Fintech Meetup at the heart of the global fintech community," Hunter continued. "As we unveil our 2027 theme, we're looking ahead to the next era of innovation and collaboration that will shape financial services worldwide. We also remain focused on transforming the event experience itself - setting a new standard for how business communities connect, engage and create value. Our goal is simple: to deliver unmatched ROI for attendees and sponsors while accelerating the growth of the fintech ecosystem."
