Chicago to Host Groundbreaking Financial Innovation Summit in 2026

A major new financial event is set to take place in Chicago next year. The Money Movement Ecosystem, organised by Kinfos Events, will run for two days in September 2026. It promises to gather over 350 industry leaders from banking, payments, fintech, and retail under one roof. The summit will feature two separate tracks, each targeting different areas of financial innovation. The Instant Payments & Beyond Summit will explore real-time payments and the future of financial infrastructure. Discussions here will centre on speed, security, and the systems driving next-generation transactions.

The second track, the PayTail Summit, shifts focus to retail and digital commerce. This part of the event will examine new checkout technologies, merchant strategies, and the latest trends in payment experiences. Both tracks aim to showcase cutting-edge developments shaping how money moves today. Scheduled for September 9-10, 2026, the summit is now open for early registration. Attendees can secure a two-day pass at a super early bird rate of $1,695, offering a discounted entry to the full programme.
