About This Event

FINNOVEX Middle East 2026 brings senior financial-services executives and technology businesses together to examine how financial systems connect. Chapter 39 focuses on the relationships between institutions, platforms, infrastructure and the people responsible for delivering services.

Under its Finance in Motion theme, the summit explores the decisions organizations face as they prepare for 2027, from modernizing operations to building accountable partnerships and protecting customer trust.

The organizer publishes eight connected conversations: The Connected Customer, Intelligent Infrastructure, Payments Without Friction, Data, Identity and Trust, AI with Accountability, Resilience by Design, Inclusive Growth, and Regulation in Motion.

Venue: Dubai, UAE — exact venue to be announced.
