The Singapore FinTech Festival (SFF) 2026, one of the world’s premier gatherings for financial innovation, will be held from 18–20 November 2026 at the Singapore EXPO, bringing together policymakers, regulators, financial institutions, investors, technology companies and entrepreneurs from around the world under the theme “Insights to Action.”
Organised by the Global Finance and Technology Network (GFTN) and the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) in collaboration with the Association of Banks in Singapore (ABS), this year’s festival will focus on translating ideas into real-world outcomes through innovation, collaboration and investment.
The Fintech Association of Sri Lanka (FASL) has once again been appointed an official Community Partner of the Singapore FinTech Festival, marking the seventh consecutive year that the Association has supported the event since 2019.
The 2026 festival reflects the growing role of artificial intelligence, tokenisation and digital finance in reshaping the global financial system. Rather than focusing solely on emerging technologies, SFF aims to provide a platform where business leaders, regulators and policymakers can forge strategic partnerships, exchange insights, influence policy and accelerate the adoption of next-generation financial solutions.
Commenting on this year’s festival, Monetary Authority of Singapore Managing Director Chia Der Jiun said Singapore’s expanding fintech ecosystem has delivered greater innovation, lower costs, increased convenience and more choices for businesses and consumers. As the industry builds the future of finance through AI and tokenisation, he noted that continued progress will depend on innovation and collaboration across the global ecosystem.
Beyond thought leadership, SFF 2026 is designed to deliver tangible business outcomes. Through its dedicated SFF Meetings Program, participants will have access to thousands of curated business meetings, investor engagement opportunities and executive networking sessions aimed at facilitating strategic partnerships, investment and commercial growth.
Reflecting its outcome-driven approach, the festival highlights messages such as “Make Connections that Close Deals” and “Return with a Mandate to Act,” reinforcing its commitment to ensuring participants leave with new partnerships, regulatory insights, technology strategies and investment opportunities.
SFF 2026 is expected to attract senior government officials, central bankers, regulators, global financial institutions, fintech innovators, venture capital firms and technology leaders to discuss the future of AI-powered finance, digital assets, tokenisation, digital identity, cross-border payments, financial inclusion and sustainable innovation.
With its renewed focus on transforming insights into action and delivering measurable business and policy outcomes, the Singapore FinTech Festival continues to reinforce Singapore’s position as one of the world’s leading fintech hubs and a catalyst for international collaboration in shaping the future of financial services.
