Full list of Paris Fintech Forum 2020 speakers: unparalleled line up of fintech CEOs, banking senior leaders and government officials from all over the world.
The Paris Fintech Forum (PFF) is the most exclusive European annual event on digital finance & fintech, organized by Altéir Event.
Paris Fintech Forum 2020 Speakers
I am both honoured and excited that Laurent Nizri invited me to contribute to the success of the #PFF20: following our few conversations and interactions at some of the leading global fintech events in 2019, including the interview we recorded at the Innovate Finance Global Summit, we were keen to find a way to work together.
A few weeks back, Laurent asked me if I would be interested to conduct some exclusive Paris Fintech Forum 2020 interviews with his prestigious speakers, essentially as a member of his team with backstage access and AV support. What a unique, thrilling opportunity to create some amazing content with arguably the best line up of fintech leaders in the world.
