Future of Finance Fest (“3f”) seeks to facilitate deep conversations about the future of finance between academics and practitioners. Academic presentations should have direct relevance for practitioners/fintechs, and practitioner/fintech presentations should have potential implications for academic research. Early-stage work is welcome. There is no submission fee. Please email your paper (for fintechs, a slide deck is also acceptable) in PDF format no later than Wednesday 26 March to submissions@fufifest.org. In the cover letter, please indicate why your work is relevant to both academics and practitioners, and how it relates to the future of finance. We expect to send decision letters by early May (make sure to add submissions@fufifest.org and info@fufifest.org to your safe senders list). The conference fee has not been finalized but will not exceed €450 euros for those who register by the end of May.
