The event is scheduled for 15 to 17 November.

This year’s iteration of the Singapore FinTech Festival (SFF) will be all about artificial intelligence (AI).

Co-organised by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and Elevandi, in partnership with Constellar and in collaboration with The Association of Banks in Singapore, SFF 2023 will focus on the growth and adoption of AI and how this technology can potentially be used in financial services.

The event is scheduled for 15 to 17 November and will take place at the Singapore EXPO.

The year of 2023 is expected to see the continued exponential growth of AI applications and adoption, with venture capitalist investments in generative AI having reached a new high of US$2.6b in 2022 and with generative AI seeing the fastest-growing consumer take-up in history, MAS and Elevandi noted in a joint statement announcing the theme.

SFF 2023 will in particular explore how technologies such as AI and Web3, and digital public goods, can help to accelerate the transition to a low-carbon future and re-imagine the financial system  architecture to better address the needs of the underserved.

There will also be a focus on  securing the digital economy against modern climate, technology, and cyber risks, the joint announcement said.

The Capital Meets Policy Dialogue™, Elevandi Insights Forum™ and the annual Innovation Lab Crawl will also be returning this year, and will be taking place on 13 and 14 November.
