Hosted Meetings
A More Intentional Way for Buyers to Engage
The Hosted Buyers programme is designed for senior leaders who want to use their time deliberately.
Hosted Buyers are senior decision-makers from banks, financial institutions, retailers and merchants, participating in a meetings-led format built around relevance and control. Every meeting is pre-scheduled and double opt-in, ensuring conversations take place only when there is a clear reason to meet.
Meeting requests are reviewed and accepted in advance, allowing Hosted Buyers to focus onsite on assessing solutions, partners and platforms aligned to active priorities - without unsolicited approaches or unstructured networking. Participation is fully supported, with complimentary attendance and travel reimbursement.
For sponsors and solution providers, the programme provides access to senior leaders who have explicitly opted into the meeting, within a calm, structured environment designed to support focus, relevance and meaningful follow-up.
Who are Hosted Meetings for?
For Fintech & Payment Solutions Providers
Priority access to senior decision-makers
Hosted Meetings give solution providers early, prioritised access to the most in-demand buyers before standard meeting requests open.
You choose who you want to meet, and meetings are curated around mutual interest and relevance, ensuring your team spends time only with decision-makers aligned to your commercial priorities.
This model is built for sales, partnerships, and business development teams that want predictability, efficiency, and measurable outcomes.
