What FinTech Junction does

FinTech Junction is Israel's leading annual fintech conference, held since 2017 and organized by Lynx by People & Computers. The event is a single-day summit hosted at the Hilton Tel Aviv venue, with the 2026 edition scheduled for 8 July 2026. It serves as a regional gathering for Israeli and international fintech participants — startup founders and product leaders, senior executives from banks, insurance companies, and global financial institutions, plus payments, risk, and compliance specialists.

The conference is structured around six agenda tracks: AI Revolution, Cybersecurity, Payments & Finance, Web3 & Digital Assets, Regulation & Compliance, and Startup Ecosystem. A companion conference app enables attendees to schedule B2B meetings beginning two weeks ahead of the event. There is no proprietary technology platform; the product is the in-person summit itself, marketed through the Lynx event platform, an email mailing list, speaker networks, and sponsor channels.

The business model relies on two revenue streams: conference ticket sales (with early bird and standard pricing tiers) and tiered corporate sponsorships (platinum, gold, silver, and community partner levels). Recurring core strategic partners include Mastercard, Stripe, Pay.com, Checkout.com, and Bank Leumi, whose senior executives participate as speakers or steering committee members. The event is one product within Lynx's broader portfolio of tech conferences, which also includes Future of AI, Lynx Security Summit, Lynx DevCon, Google Cloud Summit, and AWS Summit. CEO Ben Pelled leads the event brand.

Scale indicators1 record

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Web Summit: Web Summit is the largest general technology conference globally (Lisbon, Rio, Doha) with significant fintech content and major sponsor overlap (Mastercard, Stripe, banks). It is comparable as a large-scale B2B tech summit with similar sponsorship tiering, but spans broader tech rather than fintech-only.
• TechCrunch Disrupt: TechCrunch Disrupt is a major tech/startup conference with dedicated fintech content, targeting founders, investors, and enterprise leaders. Comparable audience overlap and sponsorship model (platinum/gold/silver), but spans broader startup ecosystem rather than fintech vertical only.

Regional players

• Hapoalim Tech / Calcalist Tech Conference: Calcalist Tech Conference is an Israeli tech and fintech event organized by the Calcalist business newspaper. It directly competes for Israeli fintech attendees and bank sponsors (including Bank Leumi and Bank Hapoalim) but is organized by a media company rather than an event-production specialist.
• Money 20/20 Middle East: Money 20/20 Middle East is the regional edition of Money 20/20 launched in Saudi Arabia, targeting the same Middle East fintech ecosystem. It is a direct competitor for regional fintech sponsorship budgets and senior fintech executive attendance from the same Israeli financial institutions.
• Singapore FinTech Festival: Singapore FinTech Festival is the largest fintech conference in Asia, organized by the Monetary Authority of Singapore. It is directly comparable as a regional fintech summit targeting founders, banks, and regulators, but serves a different geography (Asia vs. Israel/Middle East).

Emerging players

• Consensus by CoinDesk: Consensus is the largest crypto and Web3 conference globally, with overlapping agenda topics (Web3 & Digital Assets, payments, regulation). It is comparable as a specialized fintech-adjacent summit but focuses narrowly on the crypto/Web3 segment rather than full-stack fintech.

Direct peers

• Money 20/20: Money 20/20 is the world's largest dedicated fintech conference series (Las Vegas, Amsterdam, Asia, Middle East). It is the most direct peer to FinTech Junction in product category (fintech summit), target audience (payments, banking, fintech leaders), and revenue model (tickets plus platinum/gold/silver sponsorship).
• Fintech Meetup: Fintech Meetup is a global community-driven fintech events series (Tel Aviv, NYC, London, Singapore) with a similar founder/investor attendee mix. It is a direct competitor in the Israeli fintech networking space where both organize Tel Aviv editions.
• Finovate: Finovate is a long-running fintech conference series focused on banking and financial services innovation, with demo-driven formats. Comparable as a fintech-only summit serving banks, fintechs, and investors, though historically stronger in the US/Europe than Israel.

Others

• Lynx Future of AI: Future of AI is a sister event organized by the same parent (Lynx by People & Computers), with overlapping agenda tracks (AI Revolution, Fintech). It is comparable as a Lynx-portfolio event leveraging shared production and sponsor relationships, though focused on AI rather than fintech.
