The Singapore Fintech Festival (SFF) this year brought together more than 62,000 participants from over 115 countries, emerging as its largest gathering to date since the inaugural edition in 2016.

SFF 2022 featured more than 850 speakers from private and public sectors as well as more than 570 exhibitor booths, including 25 international country pavilions.

This year’s festival also saw a new ESG Fintech Zone being introduced to showcase technological solutions driving innovation and change in the region’s net zero effort.

Other key highlights include the inaugural Founders Peak, which featured 10-minute TED-like talks from more than 50 founders. Attended by around 3,000 participants, these talks gave participants a valuable opportunity to learn from the experiences of successful founders.

FQX, norbloc and WeavInsight emerged as the winners of the Global Fintech Hackcelerator 2022 while another 36 companies and individuals were selected as winners of the SFF Global Fintech Awards 2022 under the theme “Embracing Digital, Charting the New Normal”.
