EVENT OVERVIEW:

ATTENDEE INFORMATION:

5 Reasons You Should Attend

1. Industry change is here, and you need to be positioned to beat your competition.

Uncover how the payments business will truly operate in the next decade, including the future of interchange fees, regulatory issues that stifle partnership flow, and whether mobile approaches should take a vertical or horizontal approach.

2. You need to integrate technology into your business strategy.

Too often, technology and business strategies are siloed within organizations. Here, you'll be surrounded by potential partners to plumb for strategic alliances and hear case studies from industry peers to spark technological creativity. You'll also have access to 12 onstage demonstrations for up-and-coming mobile platforms in banking, transaction services and omnichannel retail applications.

3. There's no better way to meet the industry.

This is where you'll meet and solidify relationships with the key stakeholders in prepaid, emerging payments, banking (both traditional and alternative) and retailers.

4. Interact with the people who matter.

You'll be face-to-face with policymakers who shape the business landscape, the entrepreneurs disintermediating transactions, the high-ranking executives at the networks, banks and merchants who can unlock the future of your business and dozens of other stakeholders that will take your business to the next level. With partneringONE, scoring these coveted meetings just got easier.

5. Tap into new markets with smart technological investments and partnerships.

False starts and flawed investments cost your team in lost time, missed opportunities, all at the expense of your bottom line. At APEX, you'll get an unvarnished look at the realities in rolling out aggressive mobile platforms vs. dripping into the market; weigh the cost to the upside to linking loyalty and gamification with retail applications; where the next unsaturated public sector opportunity lies.
