In June 2026, Zurich will host the first Swiss Fintech Week, providing a platform for the city’s fintech ecosystem.
The Kongresshaus Zurich will serve as the main venue, bringing together startups, established fintechs, financial institutions, investors, and academics to discuss the technological future of the Swiss financial centre.
Switzerland is a leading global fintech hub, but unlike other financial centres, it has not had a dedicated fintech week.
Swiss Fintech Week aims to address this by combining existing initiatives and new formats into a week-long programme in Zurich with national and international reach.
The event will focus on key technological developments in the sector.
Discussions will cover the impact of AI on banking efficiency and customer experiences. They will also examine Switzerland’s role in regulated digital assets. In addition, the programme will explore the integration of financial services into the digital lives of businesses and consumers.
Swiss Fintech Week is organised by Tenity and the Finanz und Wirtschaft Forum.
Andreas Iten, CEO and Co-Founder of Tenity, said:
“Swiss Fintech Week provides a platform that underlines Switzerland’s position as a leading centre for innovation and investment. It is about connecting global perspectives with local expertise and advancing innovation with international relevance.”
Pascal Novotny, Managing Director of Finanz und Wirtschaft Forum, added:
“The financial sector is undergoing a fundamental transformation. Strategic partnerships between traditional institutions and fintechs are key to shaping the digital future. We aim to make the country’s innovative strength more visible and foster strategic dialogue.”
The Global Finance & Technology Network (GFTN) supports the event as a Global Strategic Partner, promoting international exchange.
While the Kongresshaus will host major conferences, the programme will also include startup showcases, pitch events, side events, and networking across Zurich.
