Money20/20 Europe 2026 brings together the people and technologies driving real change across AI, digital assets, and regulation."

Four Themes Define the 2026 Agenda

The 2026 show explores the industry's most transformative shifts through four content pillars:

AI and the Agentic Age: Where autonomous systems are rewriting how decisions are made.

The Great Rebundling: Mapping the rise of seamless, end-to-end financial experiences.

Money Stack Rewired: Spotlighting the stablecoin-driven infrastructure reinventing how value moves.

Regulation in the Fast Lane: Where rapid policy change is creating new competitive frontiers.

The Intersection Stage

The Intersection Stage debuts as the epicenter of one of the most important shifts in global finance: the convergence of TradFi and DeFi. As traditional institutions and decentralized networks increasingly collide, this stage brings together the leaders, builders, and policymakers defining a new financial paradigm—one where the stability of established banking meets the innovation of blockchain-powered systems.

Designed as the home of stablecoins, digital assets, tokenization, and next-generation money movement, the Intersection Stage will explore how innovation, regulation, and emerging infrastructure are reshaping digital assets, cybersecurity, and cross-border payments.

Enhanced Experience

Attendees can look forward to a richer, more immersive content experience this year. In addition to the new Intersection Stage, the agenda introduces the Orbital Stage and MoneyLab workshops. The Startup Hub expands significantly, featuring a larger stage, an expanded exhibition area, and more founders showcasing breakthrough ideas. The Startup Pitch Competition returns, with last year's winner, Sinpex, back with a stronger presence. A new Investor Area brings more VCs together for high-value meetings and dealmaking, while the invite-only Policy20 Summit on Day One offers exclusive access to critical regulatory discussions.

Syngenta Signs MoU to Be Strategic Partner in India’s First Open-Data Agricultural Ecosystem Annam.AI15.6.2026 09:35:00 CEST | Press Release

India’s agriculture sector is a global powerhouse, uniquely characterized by its massive scale, vast arable land, diverse agro-climatic zones and rich biodiversity. These strengths have propelled the country to become one of the world’s leading producers of crops such as rice and wheat. However, farmers in the country face significant challenges – from erratic monsoons, severe droughts and unseasonal rains compounded by El Nino, to pests and diseases that destroy an estimated 30 percent of crops annually. More than 80 percent of India’s estimated 150 million farming households are composed of smallholder farmers who operate on less than two hectares of land. This limits economies of scale, sets obstacles to the wider adoption of advanced technologies and could widen a systemic gap between large commercial agricultural operations and the bulk of its farming population.
