Atlanta has long been one of the most important fintech and payments ecosystems in the world. Atlanta Fintech Week is about bringing that ecosystem together and opening the doors for others to experience it.
In this special edition of Fintech Talks, we sit down with the team behind Atlanta Fintech Week to talk about why the week was created, what makes it different from a traditional conference, and how fintech professionals, companies, founders, students and partners from Atlanta and beyond can get involved.
Atlanta Fintech Week is designed as a community-driven week of curated experiences across the city, with programming spanning talent and innovation, payments, startups and investment, global fintech, AI, policy, risk, relationship-building and more.
