In times of global uncertainty, alliances matter. That’s why GFTN (Global Financial Technology Network) and Nordic Fintech Week (powered by Copenhagen Fintech) are teaming up to expand GFTN into Europe and build a pan-European, tech-driven fintech ecosystem. Held in collaboration with HoFT Berlin, the day before FIBE 2025, this exclusive event brings together fintech scaleups, regulators, and financial leaders to:

  • Align Europe’s political, technological, and financial roadmaps.
  • Drive a digitally sovereign financial system, leading in AI, blockchain, and quantum finance.

This is no longer business as usual. Join us in shaping Europe’s fintech future strong, independent, and globally competitive.
