Global Fintech Festival The Global Fintech Festival is scheduled to be held
from 8–10 September 2026, at the Jio World Convention Centre, Mumbai.
This year’s theme is:
POTENTIAL TO IMPACT: THE THREE PILLARS The GFF 2026 theme is built upon three foundational technologies shifting the landscape of global finance toward autonomous, programmable, and secure ecosystems. 01 AGENTIC AI FROM AUTOMATION TO AUTONOMOUS INTELLIGENCE Agentic AI enables financial systems to sense, decide, and act in real
time within strong governance frameworks. It orchestrates end-to-end workflows, strengthens
regulatory oversight, enhances fraud prevention, and responsibly personalizes financial services at
scale while empowering human decision-making through explainable intelligence. TOKENIZATION MAKING VALUE PROGRAMMABLE AND BORDERLESS Tokenization transforms assets into programmable digital units, enabling fractional ownership, instant settlement, and interoperable money. By unlocking liquidity and democratizing access, it reshapes capital markets, payments, and participation across global financial systems. 03 QUANTUM SECURING THE FUTURE OF GLOBAL FINANCE Quantum technologies introduce a foundational shift in computation and
security. From quantum-safe cryptography to advanced risk optimization, they strengthen systemic
resilience and ensure long-term trust in the financial infrastructure of tomorrow. The Global Fintech Fest (GFF), organized by the Fintech Convergence Council (FCC) under the Internet and Mobile Association of India (IAMAI), has emerged as one of the largest global convenings in the financial technology domain, bringing together governments, regulators, multilateral institutions, industry leaders and innovators to deliberate on developments in digital finance, financial inclusion and digital public infrastructure. GFF 2026 is being organized by the Payments Council of India (PCI), National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), and Fintech Convergence Council (FCC) and is supported by Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology (MEITY), NEST - Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), Department of Financial Services (DFS), Ministry of Finance, Department of Economic Affairs (DEA), Ministry of Finance, Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), Reserve Bank of India (RBI), International Financial Services Centres Authority (IFSCA) and Invest India. |
