Money2020 is a globally recognised conference which connects leaders in industry and policy in the fintech and payments space.
During his two days at the event, Minister Troy will meet with a number of Enterprise Ireland and IDA clients, as well as touring the Ireland pavilion. He will lead an Enterprise Ireland trade reception, and a roundtable on the impact of artificial intelligence in the payments sector.
Minister Troy will underline Ireland’s strong position as a destination of choice for financial innovation, the forthcoming whole-of-government strategy for the international financial services sector in Ireland, Ireland for Finance, and to strengthen relationships with officials from the Netherlands.
The companies whom Minister Troy will meet with include:
- CleverCards
- Fexco
- ID-Pal
- Transfermate
- Stripe
- Fiserv
- Paysafe
Commenting on the event and its importance, Minister Troy said:
“Money2020 is a critical platform for Irish fintechs to showcase their capabilities, connect with global stakeholders, and secure further partnerships. Ireland’s fintech sector is a real asset to the country, with global success stories like Fexco, Stripe, and TransferMate, bolstered by companies who are scaling into being international players. This government and our agencies are committed to ensuring that fintech continues to be developed and invested in. Enterprise Ireland is the third most active investor in fintech in Europe, investing over €90 million in 200+ Irish-born fintech and financial businesses.
"It is a great honour to represent the Irish Government at Money2020, where I will be seeing first hand the mark which our companies make on the international stage. I will also use the opportunity to highlight Ireland as a destination of choice for financial innovation. Our skills and access to multiple markets make us a competitive force in Europe, and that is something I will continue with the forthcoming work on the government’s next international financial services strategy, Ireland for Finance.”
