For the power of Open Banking and opportunity of Open Finance to be truly realised, collaboration is key. This is where it happens; the innovators, disruptors, and visionaries converge to propel the industry forward, forge valuable partnerships, and drive future regulation.

Not only do we host an unrivalled audience blend of financial institutions, payments players, regulators, and TPPs, but we also attract a growing number of payments leaders from diverse sectors, including retail, gaming, utilities, telecoms, and transport, all exploring the transformative potential of Open Banking for their industries.

This year, the move to the grand hall at the Business Design Centre in London was a resounding success, and we're expanding the expo floor even further in 2025 to meet the demand. Co-located with the Open Finance Show and Smart Data Show, this powerful trio of events drives the industry towards a more open, interconnected future.

The Open Banking Expo Awards celebrate a year of pioneering achievements, collaborative partnerships, and strides toward enhancing financial health for both consumers and businesses. Start exploring the award categories now to prepare for nominations.
