In 2025, Finance Loop reached thousands of professionals through professional network events and hosted events with a strong focus on Frankfurt and the ecosystem in Germany. Finance Loop believes the finance industry must adopt new technologies to drive a fundamental transformation of how finance operates. The mission is to connect people, ideas, and ecosystems across finance, fintech, and emerging technologies.
As the year comes to a close, a big thank you to everyone supporting and contributing to the ecosystem. In 2026, the focus will expand further: connecting European innovation hubs, fintechs, institutions, and founders, and connecting even more likeminded people across ecosystems. Special thanks go to all our friends and partners, including TechQuartier, Frankfurt Main Finance, Digital Euro Association, CoreLedger, Sopra Financial Technology, Blockchain Bundesverband, Frankfurt School Blockchain Center, Venturebloxx, DLT Germany, German Blockchain & AI Week, and Frankfurt Forward.
