|June 04, 2025
THE recently concluded Dubai FinTech Summit 2025, held on 12-13 May at Madinat Jumeirah under the patronage of Sheikh Maktoum bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, convened some of the world's most disruptive minds in finance and technology.
-
Hosted by the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) and organised by Trescon, the summit attracted over 9,000 participants from more than 120 countries, including 1,000 investors, 300 speakers, and 200 exhibitors.
From real-time payments and digital identity to tokenisation and decentralised finance, the summit served as a global laboratory for cutting-edge innovations shaping the future of banking and finance. Attendees participated in over 20 workshops led by the DIFC Innovation Hub, heard visionary keynotes from central bankers and fintech founders, and witnessed major announcements such as the launch of Dubai Future Finance Week 2026 and the DIFC's '1 Million Learners' Initiative, aimed at equipping youth worldwide with digital finance skills.
Yet, among the blockchain trailblazers, digital asset pioneers, and neobank innovators, a compelling narrative from Sri Lanka stood out.
