An important annual fixture in the calendar of the FX industry’s senior executives is approaching in the form of the Forex Magnates London Summit, which is scheduled to take place on the 11th-12th of November this year. The event is limited to invited attendees only.
In addition to their commitment to provide the international retail and institutional FX sectors with news from within the leading and influential organizations, Forex Magnates Summits perform a highly valuable role in providing a high level platform for the world’s movers and shakers to network, discuss and focus on driving the industry forward.
What to expect?
The event will be opened in the morning of November the 11th, with registration and a welcome brunch, followed by a unique event that will get you in the mood, called "Noon Networking Blitz": A 2-hour efficient networking session that will maximize your visibility and guarantee successful business making. The event will take place in a room filled with dozens of branded compact high-tables with drinks, so you can immediately "hunt-down" whoever you need, in order to discuss business. Additional activities during this session are to be expected.
At 14:00 the exhibition doors will be officially opened, and shortly after, the first main panel will take place: "Technological Trends in FX" - a high-profile discussion about the most interesting tech solutions and platforms to enhance trading volumes and business activity on a cross-platform level. After that, it will be time to wind down with a drink and leisurely go through the booths in our "Drink, Visit, Exhibit" evening, sponsored by Institutional Liquidity .
On the morning of the second day, November the 12th, after an 8.00am registration, the exhibitors will continue with displaying the latest developments to attendees, interspersed with the morning’s panel discussion, followed by a lunch at the hotel.
Subsequently, the afternoon’s workshops, discussions and speeches will commence, continuing from those which took place at July’s successful Tokyo Summit, addressing important issues surrounding the wider, international scope of the FX industry: The HFT challenge, best execution methods and buy side strategies and points of you - top executives from the industry will talk about all these and share their views with the audience.
Before the event gives way to an open bar to reflect on the event and share further thoughts via networking, the popular Elevator Pitch session will return after its successful introduction last year, in which you'll be able to listen and judge which 10 high-speed presenting companies will be given the "Most Innovative Financial Product" award.
During this energetic presentation, innovators and designers of new products have the opportunity to address the world's executives and pitch their ideas. This drew significant attention last year and proves an effective means of introducing new products to the right audience.
Concluding the day's events will be the Forex Magnates Award Ceremony, presented by Forex Magnates CEO Michael Greenberg, the results of which will be published on a real-time basis.
Forex Magnates looks forward to welcoming you to the Summit in November.
