The leading event focusing on how the commercial payments industry is gearing for growth through innovation
Innovation in commercial payments is flourishing as the global economy expands beyond the past pandemic into a new phase of growth. As markets return and demand surges, payment products are evolving to meet new needs and trends in commercial transactions. Driven by technological transformation, the virtuous mix of fintechs, banks and corporates are working together to evolve an ecosystem that works for all. Yet volatility and inflationary pressures are creating uncertainty in markets and risks remain in security, fraud and data.
The conference addressed how the commercial payments industry is gearing for growth through innovation and creating the solutions businesses need now to manage risks and optimise efficiencies in B2B transactions.
After three years, the CPI Global Summit was back in-person to New York which featured:
- Unrivalled networking opportunities, which enabled attendees to build relationships with some of the biggest names in your industry
- End user corporate and banking perspectives and their experiences of commercial payment systems transformation
- Panels, workshops and roundtables covering themes such as innovation; new economy, investment, commercialisation, technologies, and pricing.
- 2 days of compelling content and 50+ industry leaders
Over 230 payments leaders gathered together on October 18th-19th, 2022 to hear their routes to recovery and the new directions in which the industry is growing. Attendees were engaged and learnt from B2B payments leaders, fintechs, banks, corporates, and many more on how to manage volatility.
