Fintech Meetup, the leading tech-enabled fintech event, today announced its in-person 2022 event, following the breakout success of its virtual launch event last week. Founded by fintech and events industry pioneers Anil D. Aggarwal and Simran Rekhi Aggarwal, Fintech Meetup 2022 will be held on March 27-30, 2022 at Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas, and is the next major step towards using proprietary technology to build the biggest and best US fintech event over the next 24 months.
“We launched Fintech Meetup as a meetings-centric virtual event because the pandemic made it impossible to hold a comprehensive and inclusive in-person event this Spring,” said Anil D. Aggarwal, founder and chief executive officer of Fintech Meetup.
“Going forward, however, our primary focus is on end-to-end tech-enabled in-person events that also include all of the traditional aspects of events–from sessions and speakers to sponsors and exhibitors. Our proprietary technology, which enables and simplifies collaboration, will facilitate tens of thousands of highly targeted on-site meetings to help catalyze payments, banking and financial services innovation.”
Fintech Meetup 2022 will include:
- Attendance capped at 5,000
- An agenda with more than 250 speakers
- Over 300 sponsors and exhibitors
- Over 20,000 facilitated on-site meetings and peer discussions, across a wide range of use cases
- Receptions, lunches, entertainment and more
- Hosted Programs that provide free tickets as well as travel reimbursement of up to $500 each for qualifying individuals from banks, credit unions and retailers/merchants
Fintech Meetup 2022 follows the success of last week’s groundbreaking virtual launch event, which utilized proprietary event software customized for fintech to deliver:
- 19,400+ meetings for 2,100+ individuals from 1,000+ organizations, making it the largest ever meetings program in fintech
- 5,500+ hours of lead gen presentations, partnership discussions, funding pitches, recruiting introductions, media/analyst interviews and peer group conversations
- 160+ peer group discussions with 890+ participants across a wide range of topics
One-third of participants in the launch event were C-level executives and two-thirds were VP and above. Post-event, participants indicated they were satisfied with more than 94% of their meetings, neither satisfied nor unsatisfied with 4%, and unsatisfied with less than 2%.
“Our launch event established us as the gold standard for fintech events by showcasing the incredible power of our proprietary technology in transforming the event experience,” added Aggarwal. “We’ve delivered value that no one-size-fits-all, off-the-shelf solution is able to provide, and so we can now say without any doubt that software is eating fintech events.”
“Everyone in fintech knows that great technology disrupts the status quo,” said Simran Rekhi Aggarwal, founder and president of Fintech Meetup. “That’s exactly what we’re doing for fintech events with our proprietary platform. There’s no question that the leading fintech events of the next decade will be tech-enabled experiences, and we’re excited to lead the way.”
