The financial services industry is one of the primary sectors, providing the free flow of capital and liquidity in the Indonesian financial marketplace. The financial services sector consists of banking, mortgages, payment services, tax preparation and planning, credit cards, accounting, investing and others. Over the years digital transformation in financial service has rapidly changed across the Asia-Pacific region, with banks adopting real-time payments, cloud-native infrastructure, and AI-driven decision systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the key drivers in this transformation in 2025 is the increasing number of finance and fintech events in APAC<\/strong> that are allowing financial institutions to collaborate, and incorporate emerging solutions to their operational models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fintech events play a crucial role in aligning regional banking priorities with global financial trends. Banks attending a fintech event are exposed to current topics such as API-based open banking, digital identity frameworks, and payment interoperability standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here are some of the key factors why financial and fintech events are essential for banking sector:<\/p>\n\n\n\n These events bring together banks, fintechs, regulators, and technology providers to discuss and accelerate digital transformation, a necessity as customer expectations shift toward seamless, mobile-first experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Conferences serve as platforms for sharing the latest trends, regulatory updates, and technological advancements. Attendees gain insights into AI, automation, cybersecurity, and digital payments, helping banks stay competitive and future-ready.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With hundreds of business and technology leaders present, events like WFIS foster collaborations between banks, fintech startups, investors, and regulators. This leads to new business models, pilot projects, and investment opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In regions like Southeast Asia, where many are newly banked or unbanked, these events emphasize financial inclusion, digital banking, and scalable solutions to reach underserved populations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Bringing together policymakers and industry leaders, these conferences help shape regulatory frameworks for emerging technologies, ensuring innovation happens within a compliant and secure environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Live demonstrations, panel discussions, and case studies allow banks to evaluate new technologies, learn from successful deployments, and benchmark against industry leaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Events address unique APAC challenges\u2014such as high mobile penetration, rapid fintech adoption, and the need for secure, interoperable systems\u2014by providing practical, scalable innovations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to data from industry reports published in Q1 2025, financial institutions in Southeast Asia have increased their budget allocation for technology adoption by more than 20% year-over-year, and a significant part of this growth is influenced by participation in APAC banking events. Such events help banks understand where the sector is moving, what customers expect, and how competitors are modernizing. Additionally, regulators often use these gatherings to communicate policy developments and compliance mandates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n World Financial Innovation Series (WFIS) 2025 \u2013 Indonesia<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Money20\/20 Asia 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n ASEAN Banking and Finance Summit (ABFS) 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n World Financial Innovation Series (WFIS) 2025 \u2013 Philippines<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Asian Banking & Finance and Insurance Asia Summit \u2013 Malaysia<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Temenos Regional Forum Asia Pacific 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n These conferences are the cornerstone events for anyone in APAC\u2019s banking and fintech sector, offering unmatched access to industry leaders, innovation showcases, and strategic partnership opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The World Financial Innovation Series (WFIS) 2025 \u2013 Indonesia is the country\u2019s leading financial technology summit, returning for its 7th edition on November 25\u201326, 2025, at the Sheraton Grand Jakarta, Gandaria.
