This fall, join AIR for the inaugural Converge gathering where innovators, policymakers and industry leaders will meet to reimagine the future of financial regulation for the age of digital technology and AI.

Why now? Powerful winds of change are converging on financial regulation. The new Administration and Congress are moving rapidly to remake the U.S. government, including the financial agencies. Laws and rules are shifting. Markets are evolving. And transformative technology is proliferating, especially in generative AI and tokenization.

This makes September the ideal time to gather in Washington, D.C. to understand, envision and help shape the future. AIR has crafted Converge by drawing on our networks of provocative thinkers and the cross-silo community we have built hosting dozens of gatherings, including 20+ TechSprints, worldwide.

We’ll imagine the future, plot new pathways to realize aspirations, and help the community think through opportunities and risks. Participants will come away with insights on likely changes in policy, GenAI impacts, and competition, as well as practical design thinking techniques and innovation frameworks. They’ll also connect with thought leaders, policymakers and industry peers.

This is not an ordinary conference but rather an interactive experience offering multiple viewpoints, challenging perspectives, workshops, labs and small group dialogue. Top speakers will debate, provoke ideas, and raise new possibilities. Participants will choose their unique journey among sessions designed to spur fresh thinking, teach innovation techniques, and foster co-creation. 

Tickets are now available at 50% off!

Take advantage of early bird pricing of $499 through June 13.
