The event will be held November 2nd, 2017, at the New York Hilton Hotel.
“The rise of FinTech is causing a complete restructuring of the global economy,” said Anthony Perrotta, CEO of TABB Group. “The combination of Cloud, Distributed Ledger Technology, Artificial Intelligence, alternative data including the Internet of Things, and more are transforming markets in unprecedented fashion.

In 2016 total venture capital investment in FinTech was $17.4 billion, which was up 11 percent compared to 2015, according to TABB Group research. Workflows are being automated, informed, and transformed by secular FinTech drivers that will have a tremendous impact on human capital, market structure, regulation, and the economics of capital markets.
