D’Almeida said last year’s Intersekt attracted more than 800 visitors, with a long waiting list for the first time in its history.

“The full conference agenda will be finalized in the coming weeks, but as it stands, we’ll be covering some of the key topics, including: PayTo, the CDR, Open Finance and shifts in corporate banking. We will also break new ground regarding Web3, Proptech and the interaction with fintech and, of course, innovations in cryptocurrency. We will also delve into the evolving market conditions facing the fintech sector and risk finance trends.

“All of these topics will align with our four main themes: DeFi and Web3, The Payments Revolution, Fintechs Going Global, and Customers in Spotlight.”

D’Almeida said the two-day conference was made possible thanks to our Presenting Partner, the Victorian Government and Gold Sponsors: Austrade, Till Payments and Swyftx.
