She most recently served as the first Chief Innovation Officer of the Federal Reserve System, where she built and led the Fed’s innovation agenda across the 12 Reserve Banks and Board of Governors. Her work focused on both the application of emerging technologies within the institution and assessing the policy implications shaping the future of the financial system - including artificial intelligence, digital assets, tokenization, quantum computing, and the future of money and payments.
With more than a decade of experience as a builder, investor, and operator across TradFi, fintech, crypto, and central banking in North America and Asia, Sunayna is known for helping institutions meet the moment - by solving gnarly problems and translating bold ideas into practical execution, shipped outcomes, and measurable business value.

A connector of ideas, individuals, and institutions, Sunayna has spent her career creating the conditions for active engagement between the public and private sectors. Her regularly hosted and curated (and over subscribed!) roundtables have yielded not only a forum for spicy conversations, but also positive connections and productive collaboration. When Sunayna is not nerding out about all things innovation, you can find her adventuring the the skies in her Cessna.

We are excited to engage with peers who share a vision for responsible innovation, explore collaborative pathways for digital finance, and learning what’s working on the ground, and co‑creating paths that make adoption safer and faster. SFF turns ideas into partnerships and we’re excited to showcase live demos of compliance‑automated tokenization and TradeTrust‑enabled digital trade flows, and to connect with central banks, regulators, and financial institutions.

What excites me about SFF 2025 is the chance to reimagine that reality—bringing together regulators, technologists, and financial institutions to build scalable, intelligent compliance infrastructure. By embedding AI, automation, and real-time regulatory intelligence directly into the financial fabric, we can turn compliance into a growth enabler rather than a hurdle.
