Why Our Meetings Programme is So Valuable to Europe
Fintech Meetup Europe’s Meetings Programme is a tech-enabled, double opt-in system that facilitates tens of thousands of curated one-to-one meetings between attendees.
Our platform makes it effortless to connect with the people most relevant to your business. Four weeks before the event, participants complete their profile, select meeting preferences, and approve meeting requests. By event week, your calendar is pre-populated with confirmed meetings, no cold outreach or guesswork required.
Over three days, the Meetings Programme runs across four dedicated 90-minute sessions, each with six 15-minute meeting slots, giving every attendee up to 24 opportunities to build relationships and drive results.
Our system is algorithm-driven, double opt-in, and universally available - every attendee can participate, ensuring quality and scale unmatched by traditional networking formats.
The proof is in the results: at our U.S. event, we’ve powered 50,000+ meetings with an industry-low 4% no-show rate and 91% satisfaction. Now, we’re bringing that proven success to Europe.
Before the event, you’ll browse attendee profiles, request meetings, and approve requests from others. Once both parties opt in, the system automatically schedules your meeting, no back-and-forth, no admin hassle.
Meet senior decision makers from across the fintech ecosystem, including:
- Banks and Financial institutions
- Fintechs, Payments companies, and Startups
- Retailers and Merchants
- Investors
- Regulators, Associations, and Industry bodies
You’ll have access to 650+ Hosted Buyers and 600+ CEOs and founders, the people who make things happen.
All attendees can access the Meetings Programme.
However, Hosted Meetings and select sponsorship packages provide enhanced access to high-value buyers and top decision makers from across financial services.
Most participants complete 10–15 meetings over the three days, with many achieving more depending on engagement level and sponsorship tier.
Meetings are held onsite on the show floor, creating a vibrant environment filled with thousands of concurrent conversations and deal-making energy.
Because Fintech Meetup meetings deliver results.
With 25,000+ double opt-in meetings and industry-leading satisfaction scores, our Meetings Programme is designed to fast-track deals, build pipelines, and forge lasting partnerships.
No other fintech event in Europe delivers this level of precision, participation, and ROI, and that’s what makes Fintech Meetup Europe truly different.
