#VF2018 offers world-class education, funding and networking opportunities delivered via keynotes, TEDx-style presentations, panels, workshops, executive round tables, investor pitching, meeting exchanges and mentoring covering Fintech, Blockchain, Crypto, Artificial Intelligence, Crowd and Distributed Finance, Regtech, Payments, Open and Digital banking, Identity and Security, International Trade, Alternative Investing and Innovation Finance topics from a diverse range of perspectives including emerging technologies, investment, regulation, Canadian competitiveness, global innovation and humanity.
This year’s theme, CONVERGE, immerses participants and builds bridges with the most disruptive emerging technologies, capital market innovations and key stakeholders that are powering new global markets, new decentralized models, new forms of computer intelligence, new IP, new infrastructure and new alternative investment opportunities that encapsulate the vision of a Web 3.0.
Consumers, businesses, incumbents, institutions and governments can no longer sit on the sidelines. The convergence, decentralization and digital transformation of financial technologies is accelerating at break-neck speed globally, impacting the future of finance and society at all levels. We are witnessing unprecedented change that will impact our daily lives in how we interact with financial services, generate digital wealth, invest, evaluate, consume, vote, store, transfer and purchase anything of value. How fast will already existing services be adopted by the masses, which continents will quantum leap to the future, which companies will transform the global ecosystem as they scale? And will the world be a better place as they do so?

Chatham House Rule https://www.chathamhouse.org/chatham-house-rule
3 topics/3 roundtables. Each table will have 12 minutes to discuss their topic, then 2 minutes to report no more than 3 outcome(s) to the room. So choose your table, then choose your reporter, and stay focused on getting to outcomes! NCFA will send your key messages to the appropriate recipients.
TABLE 1 - KEY MESSAGES AND APPROACH: What messages would you like NCFA to send/represent to key regulatory stakeholders. NCFA has made several presentations but advancements have been slow. How can we strengthen our message and have a greater impact or ideas to implement a different approach?
TABLE 2 - SELF-REGULATION?: In the absence of supportive regulation and adequate government policies for fintech and financing innovation in Canada, compared to other jurisdictions, there have been increasing calls for self-regulation to enhance the competitiveness of these businesses in Canada and their credibility overseas. Eg, reporting standards to enhance transparency, accountability, and consumer/investor understanding; code of ethics/conduct to enhance fair treatment of customers/investors and enhance trust; operational standards for effective governance, systems and controls, risk management to help businesses prepare for scale-up and to smooth the way for discussions with regulators in Canada and overseas.
Is some self-regulation needed? If so, what are the priorities and how do we pay for them?
TABLE 3 - COLLABORATION: Regulation in Canada can be stifling and costly. How can firms collaborate to make compliance easier?
RegTech? Outsourcing? Training? Telling our stories - story wall?
