The Argentine fintech ecosystem is set to shine as the Argentina Fintech Forum 2023 calls upon leaders from the sector to discuss emerging trends, regulations, and the concept of open banking.

A Platform for Growth Amid Economic Crisis

Despite the ongoing economic crisis in Argentina, the fintech ecosystem is showing signs of robust growth. This progress is driven by the difficulties many Argentinians face in accessing traditional financial services, which fintech solutions are designed to alleviate. The Argentina Fintech Forum, organized by the Argentine Fintech Chamber, aims to highlight these dynamics and point out opportunities for the industry both locally and regionally.

Over 60 national and international speakers will be present, providing insights and sharing their expertise.

The forum will also feature representatives from similar organizations from other countries. Fifteen delegations from the countries forming the Ibero-American Fintech Alliance are expected to attend, sharing their perspectives on business evolution in their respective regions.
