Jessica Blue, Executive Vice President of Money20/20 USA (Credit: Money20/20 USA) explains why convergence, partnerships, and trust will define the next era of financial services.
Money20/20 USA brings together banks, fintechs, technology companies, regulators, and investors in Las Vegas. The goal? To foster dialogue across financial services sectors – and turn those conversations into collaborations, products, and businesses.
Key Takeaways:
- Convergence: Stablecoins, tokenized assets, real-time payments, and AI are no longer seen as isolated innovations but as core components of modern finance.
- Partnerships: The most important conversations in fintech happen across sectors, not within them, and successful implementation requires collaborative thinking.
- Maturity: The market has moved from experimental projects to real-world execution, with a focus on commercial deployment, integration, unit economics, and risk management.
