Tel Aviv, Israel, June 24th, 2026, FinanceWire
The 10th annual summit will convene banks, insurers, payment companies, fintech startups, cybersecurity leaders, investors and enterprise executives for a high-impact day of content, networking and business meetings
FinTech Junction 2026, Israel’s leading annual fintech conference, will return to Hilton Tel Aviv on July 8, 2026, bringing together senior leaders from across financial services, AI, cybersecurity, payments, digital assets, commerce, venture capital and the startup ecosystem.
Produced by Lynx, the 2026 edition marks the 10th annual FinTech Junction Summit, continuing its role as one of the region’s most important meeting points for the companies and decision-makers shaping the future of financial technology.
This year’s conference arrives at a defining moment for the industry. Fintech is no longer a standalone vertical serving only banks and payment companies. Financial infrastructure now powers eCommerce, SaaS, embedded payments, global payroll, digital commerce, insurance, compliance, cybersecurity and AI-driven customer experiences. As every technology company becomes more financial and every financial company becomes more technological, FinTech Junction 2026 will explore the new operating system of the digital economy.
Quote from Organizer
"Fintech is becoming the invisible infrastructure behind the modern economy. FinTech Junction is more than a conference - it is the annual convergence of everyone building, financing, and deploying the future of finance in Israel and beyond. Reaching our 10th edition is a reflection of the extraordinary growth of this ecosystem, and we are proud to bring together the people and companies at the forefront of that transformation." - Ben Pelled, Founder & CEO, Lynx
