The Singapore FinTech Festival (SFF) and Singapore Week of Innovation and TeCHnology (SWITCH) will return this year as SFF x SWITCH, on 7 to 11 December 2020. Designed to reach a truly global audience, SFF x SWITCH 2020 will expand to become the world’s first week-long round-the-clock, hybrid digital and physical event for attendees - no matter where you are in the world.
Last year, SFF x SWITCH drew more than 60,000 attendees from 140 countries covering advancements in FinTech and other key sectors of deep tech.
This special 2020 edition will feature a hybrid experience like no other. Participants can look forward to a digitally enhanced SFF x SWITCH that provides a rich immersive experience combining physical and online access.
2020 Theme
Since their inception, SFF has championed challenging topics that the financial services industry faces, from financial inclusion to sustainability. Meanwhile, SWITCH brought together conversations on key innovation domains of deep tech such as Smart Cities and Urban Solutions; Healthcare and Biomedical Sciences; Trade and Connectivity; as well as Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence and 5G, and their impact on society. Together, SFF x SWITCH will celebrate our raison d’etre – People and Talent.
Set against a backdrop of global challenges in 2020, SFF x SWITCH will shine a spotlight on the trailblazing pioneers who have made a difference as well as rising stars with the potential to transform global industries. It will also honour individuals who have demonstrated remarkable resilience in overcoming obstacles to create new opportunities that have significantly advanced our society.
Furthermore, SFF x SWITCH 2020 will support initiatives and community activities that drive talent development, reskilling and upskilling of the finance and tech workforce.
