2026 Theme
The theme for the 2026 EMEA Summit is Fortifying Our Trusted Ecosystem.
Trust in the financial sector is no longer built by financial institutions alone - it is shaped by the strength of the entire ecosystem, including partners, providers, and policymakers. This year’s Summit centers on the importance of collaboration across sectors to secure the global financial system.
Content can be presented as presentations, roundtables, discussions, or panels in the Intelligence, Security, and Resilience tracks. We invite you to share your real-world examples, innovative approaches, successes, and lessons learned on:
- Working across stakeholders to respond to incidents and strengthen defenses
- Collaborating to identify vulnerabilities and improve risk mitigation approaches
- Sustained partnerships that result in a more secure and resilient financial system, including direct and indirect influence and measurable outcomes
Hint: co-presenting with a member is an actionable measurement of collaboration!
