The only strategic event bringing together European acquirers, merchants, schemes, processors and industry professionals.
Europe is a patchwork of parallel, incompatible payment networks and the need for consolidation is growing. The conference is bringing together 120+ participants to start a debate between all parties involved in the European Card Acquiring Value Chain.
Discussion-based nature of this event will be enabled by shorter presentations giving more space to interactive round tables. More than 26 speakers will step up to share their conflicting viewpoints and engage in a provocative dialogue with the audience.
