What is included in the Delegate Pass vs. the Visitor Pass?
The Delegate Pass includes everything in the Visitor Pass (expo access and sessions) plus several premium benefits: lunch and coffee breaks, a cocktail networking reception, access to the full attendees list post-event, and a participation certificate. Visitor passes are more restricted and do not typically include the post-event attendee list or the full catering package.
Is there a focus on specific regions like the Middle East or Asia?
While the 3rd edition is hosted in Amsterdam to focus on the European market, the event series is global. The organizers (The People Events) also host editions in Singapore and Dubai. Consequently, the Amsterdam event often features cross-border panels discussing corridors between Europe and emerging fintech hubs in Asia and the UAE.
Can I apply to be a speaker for the 2026 Amsterdam edition?
Yes, the organizers accept speaker applications through their website. They look for C-level executives, founders, and regulators who can speak on themes like Digital Assets, Green Fintech, and RegTech. Speaker passes are usually paid but include significant branding benefits and access to private networking lounges.
Is the venue accessible for international business travelers?
The Holiday Inn Amsterdam – Arena Towers is located in the Amsterdam Zuidoost business district, which is specifically designed for international events. It is exceptionally well-connected to Schiphol Airport via a direct train line, making it one of the most accessible venues in the city for those flying in for the two-day event.
Will there be an app for networking and scheduling meetings?
The event typically utilizes a dedicated networking app that goes live a few weeks before the conference. Registered delegates can use this to browse the attendee list, schedule 1:1 meetings in the curated lounges, and personalize their session schedule.
