2025 Festival Theme

Framing the next decade of growth

Defining an Era

Celebrating the last decade of progress

 

We mark a decade of innovation driven by public-private collaboration. We celebrate the resilience of a community that advanced Open Banking, embedded finance, API-driven architectures, and cross-border digital asset pilots to broaden access, strengthen financial systems, and unlock new opportunities for impactful innovation.

Corridor for Growth

Building the future pathways for growth

 

The next decade will be shaped by AI, Tokenization, and Quantum Computing. We will unpack how their secure, interoperable, and inclusive deployment will drive new liquidity, build a more connected global economy, and unlock new growth corridors.

Confronting Challenges

Addressing the unresolved challenges

 

Despite progress, critical challenges remain - the USD 5.2 trillion SME finance gap, 1.4 billion unbanked, and ageing populations. SFF will address issues like transparency, data privacy, cybercrime, and sustainability, framing opportunities for collaboration that will foster more resilient, inclusive, and secure financial ecosystems.
