Payments Went Global. Can the Tech Keep Up?
Add to calendar
About This Session
Payments move across borders in seconds. Building the technology to support them is a different challenge: connecting to local payment rails, adapting to market requirements, and scaling reliable products across regions. This panel looks at the infrastructure and product choices that help payment companies expand across the US, Europe, the Gulf and Asia—and where local licensing still shapes the roadmap. Founders leave with practical ideas for sequencing market entry, reducing integration friction and building payment systems that can scale globally.

About this session
India's technology and financial landscape is expanding beyond its traditional centres, creating new opportunities for states to shape the country's economic future. Bihar's ambition to become an AI hub and Odisha's emergence as a fintech hub reflect two distinct approaches to technology-led transformation. How can these states build globally competitive innovation ecosystems, develop talent, foster entrepreneurship and attract international partnerships? The discussion explores how state-level innovation can strengthen India's national competitiveness while connecting emerging technology hubs with global markets, investment and opportunities.

Banking 5.0: The Rise of the Agentic Bank
About this session
Smart economies are beginning to make decisions and act across transport, energy, commerce and finance. Banking’s next shift may follow: AI agents could move from advising customers to initiating transactions, coordinating services and managing financial outcomes on their behalf. That prospect raises a structural question: can systems built around human instructions, batch payments and familiar forms of accountability support finance conducted at machine speed? The answer depends on more than a smarter interface. It requires new architecture, agentic compliance and risk controls that preserve human oversight where it matters. Banking 5.0 sets out the case for that transition and what separates structural change from a chatbot layered over legacy systems.
