FinTech Over Coffee: Five Forces Reshaping Payments

OCT2
09:00

About this event

Close out Atlanta Fintech Week with a fast-moving conversation about the forces transforming how money moves—and what they mean for financial institutions, fintech companies, merchants, and consumers.
We’ll explore five major shifts:
AI and agentic commerce — Jordan Reynolds, Checkout.com: What happens when AI begins searching, deciding, and transacting on behalf of customers?
Stablecoins and tokenized money — Jonathan King, Coinbase: Where are these technologies moving from experimentation to practical adoption?
Cross-border payments and local payment rails — Francheska Flores, Thunes: How are new platforms and local rails making international transactions faster, simpler, and more accessible?
Digital identity, fraud, and trust — Ravi Bijlani, KYXStart: How do we establish trust as transactions become faster, more automated, and increasingly invisible?
The changing economics of payments — Callum Godwin, CMSPI: How are evolving costs, regulation, competition, and payment methods reshaping the industry?
Each expert will offer a brief perspective on one of these forces before we open the conversation among the group and with the audience.
Join us for coffee, practical insights, and one final opportunity to connect during Atlanta Fintech Week.
