The RegTech Association - ACCELERATE RegTech Global 2025

ABOUT THE PROGRAMS

From the home of RegTech, these gatherings will unite policy, supervisory, innovation, risk leaders, and technologists to explore challenges and opportunities in a collaborative environment.

Change-maker discussion led formats to provoke, inspire and take us to an environment that underscores trust by accelerating adoption of RegTech.

These events will take place across three key locations:

Sydney for the APAC region

It will feature a half-day conference, three executive roundtables, and we will celebrate RegTech excellence with our prestigious RegTech Awards.
