Middle East Banking Innovation Summit 2021

Ten years on from the inaugural Middle East Banking Innovation Summit, growth in the fintech industry in the MENA region is continuing to gather speed. Whilst digital transformation is occurring throughout; with significant developments occurring in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Lebanon, the UAE continues to hold its position as the region’s largest fintech hub as the banking sector joins the global trend of technology transformation and intense digitization. With competition from new market entrants intensified, banks in the Middle East are quickly rising to the challenges and opportunities presented by changing consumer expectations and new regulations, forcing them to continue their development of digital capabilities and banking innovation.

The undisputed market leader in banking technology events in the region, the Summit will bring together banking leaders, fintech experts and over 450 senior financial services executives to discuss the future of digital banking across a two-day agenda hosting over 40 international and regional speakers.
