About the Summit
The 2nd BFSI Tech Innovation Summit arrives at the most critical moment in India’s financial history. India has crossed into the era of AI-native finance, where UPI moves billions in real time, AI approves credit, Aadhaar becomes predictive intelligence, and fraud is powered by deepfakes and synthetic identities.
At the same time, regulators are moving toward continuous reporting, real-time compliance, and algorithmic accountability.
Hosted in Mumbai — India’s financial capital, this BFSI technology summit in India brings together CXOs, regulators, fintech innovators, banks, NBFCs, insurers, and technology providers to answer one critical question:
How do we build a financial system that moves at the speed of AI, yet earns the trust of a nation?
