FTT Virtual North America, September 9th, 2020

When and where is it on?

FTT Virtual North America will run on September 9th 2020, kicking off at 9:00 am (EST) from the comfort of your WFH/bricks & mortar office or wherever you find yourself on the day.  The link for people to register is as follows –  https://www.fintechtalents.com/virtualnorthamerica/

What was the inspiration to start it?

FTT Virtual North America was designed with the objective to overcome the barriers to interaction created by COVID-19 but also to allow full access to our community, wherever they are, no matter what their current circumstance. Physically distant, maybe, but always connected and looking ahead to the next great idea to shake up the industry. We wanted to curate an event that delivered, to the extent possible, the same type of value our community derives from our physical events.

How many years has it been going?

This is the launch of FTT Virtual North America and follows on from the very successful FTT Virtual Spring.

What exciting things can people look forward to?

Hear from industry thought-leaders and innovators, meet over 3K attendees from across North America (and beyond) and get involved in an exciting agenda. Grab a drink and enjoy our Virtual Networking Happy Hour, including a musical interlude.
