For the first time in its history, Money20/20—the world’s leading event for payments, fintech, and the broader financial ecosystem—will be held in the Middle East. From 15 to 17 September 2025, the Riyadh Exhibition & Convention Center (RECC) will welcome thousands of innovators, investors, and policymakers for three days of discussions, deal-making, and inspiration.
More than 450 global brands, 350+ visionary speakers, and 600+ investors are expected to attend, making it one of the most significant financial technology gatherings ever staged in the region. With sessions covering digital banking, payments innovation, open finance, AI in financial services, and the future of money, the event promises to set the tone for the next wave of transformation in MENA.
For Saudi Arabia, the event carries particular weight. Hosting Money20/20 is a clear signal of the Kingdom’s ambition to establish itself as a global fintech hub, in alignment with Vision 2030. With its trillion-dollar economy and fast-growing digital infrastructure, Riyadh is positioning itself as the center of gravity for financial innovation across the Middle East, Africa, and beyond.
Money20/20 Riyadh will not just be a stage for global leaders but also a platform for regional startups, regulators, and corporates to showcase their progress and form cross-border partnerships. This convergence of talent and capital highlights the pivotal role fintech will play in shaping both the Kingdom’s economy and the broader global financial landscape.
