With less than a month to go before FINNOVEX Saudi Arabia 2026, InterContinental Riyadh by IHG has been confirmed as the Premium Venue Partner for this year’s event, scheduled for 2–3 September 2026.
The Riyadh chapter is expected to welcome more than 200 senior decision-makers and 40 speakers, with participation from banks, financial institutions, fintech companies and technology providers.
This year’s programme is being developed around the theme “Vision 2030 & Fintech Innovation: Accelerating Saudi Arabia’s Digital Finance Ecosystem.”
The choice of InterContinental Riyadh also marks a closer association between FINNOVEX and the venue for this chapter. The property will host the main summit on 2 September, followed by executive workshops and roundtable discussions on 3 September.
Speaking about the association, Shabaz Ahmed , Show Director, FINNOVEX Global Series, said:
“Riyadh has become an important meeting point for financial services and technology, and we wanted a venue that matched the level of people we are bringing together.
For us, this was never only about booking a ballroom. We wanted the hotel to be part of the experience and part of the association. InterContinental Riyadh understood that approach, and I am pleased that we are working together for this chapter 38.
We have bankers, technology companies, regulators and senior executives coming into the same room. What matters now is making those two days useful for the people attending.”
The sponsor line-up for the Riyadh chapter currently includes OutSystems and Raqmiyath as Platinum Sponsors, Sardin as Gold Sponsor and Wultra as Bronze Sponsor.
The companies will participate alongside senior executives from the financial sector during the conference and networking programme.
FINNOVEX Saudi Arabia has been structured across two days.
2 September will host the main summit, including keynote sessions, panel discussions and executive networking.
3 September will move into a more focused format with workshops and roundtable discussions.
Topics across the programme will include the changing priorities of Saudi financial institutions, payments, technology, operational resilience, digital transformation and the role of fintech in the Kingdom’s financial sector.
