Payments 2035: Reimagining the Value Chain

The global payments stack is being rapidly redefined by blockchain-based settlement, embedded finance, digital wallets, and real-time rails. From e-commerce giants to global banks, big tech platforms, and fintechs, both traditional and emerging players are redefining how money can move across borders, platforms, and experiences. In 10 years, what will payments look like at every step of the value chain, from initiation to settlement?

This panel session will explore how emerging technologies are reshaping, and will continue to reshape, the payments value chain, where the opportunities for monetization will lie in the future of payments, and what an inclusive payments ecosystem will look like in the coming decade.
