Vietnam
Debuting in 2023, WFIS got a phenomenal entry into Vietnam with the strong support and guidance from Vietnam Banks Association (VNBA). With participations hailing from diverse FSI domains, the platform has established a more than definite credibility. It’s perhaps the reason why WFIS continues to have the backing from VNBA.

Kenya
While powering the most influential FSI congregation in Africa for the past couple of years, Kenya emerged as the continent’s most preferred destination for WFIS. Other than being the country’s premier event for its financial services industry, the platform in the past has gathered support from renowned organisations like Kenya Institute of Bankers, Association of Fintechs in Kenya and others.

Philippines
Despite being a fairly new region for WFIS, the platform has disrupted the country’s financial services market in a very short span. Having graced by the Philippines’ most renowned organisations like Fintech Philippines Association, Digital Pilipinas, FinTech Alliance.Ph and Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas, the platform has now become what’s considered as the country’s most happening FSI event.
