24 Fintech

About the event

The organisers describe the Middle East as setting the pace in a fast-moving fintech sector and present Money20/20 Middle East as an entry point to a financial market they rank among the most dynamic anywhere. Rapid digital change and a firm commitment to fintech innovation, in their view, make Riyadh the obvious host for the sector’s major debates: a high-growth market where ideas become partnerships, policy and progress meet, and companies find new openings.
