About Global Fintech Fest 2025
The Global Fintech Fest (GFF) is the world’s largest and most influential fintech event. It is a global platform for thought leadership, innovation exchange, regulatory dialogue, and public-private collaboration. What began as a virtual initiative during the pandemic in 2020 has now become a defining space where the future of finance, digital public infrastructure, and emerging technologies are shaped collectively by global stakeholders.
In a defining moment at GFF2024, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi delivered a landmark address that set the strategic tone for fintech’s role in inclusive development, innovation, and India's emergence as a global leader in digital finance. His vision underscored the transformative power of technology in democratizing finance, promoting trust, and building a resilient financial ecosystem — an ethos that GFF2025 builds upon and amplifies on the world stage.
The sixth edition, GFF2025, will be hosted from October 7–9, 2025, at the Jio World Centre, Mumbai, with the theme: “Empowering Finance for a Better World – Powered by AI: Augmented Intelligence | Innovation | Inclusion.”
The theme reflects the urgent need to combine responsible artificial intelligence with human insight to drive the next generation of financial services, enhance institutional resilience, and ensure that innovation serves both business and societal goals.
