The Cyprus Fintech Summit (CFS) event is back, and this time it’s bigger than ever! Happening this Friday, 6th December 2024, at the Crowne Plaza hotel in Limassol, CFS has officially sold out for the first time in its three-year history.
With nearly 250 tickets gone, it’s clear that this event has become the must-attend fintech gathering in Cyprus and beyond.
This Friday marks the fifth CFS. From the first-ever Cyprus Fintech Summit, which took place online during Covid, to last year’s incredible event, CFS has grown from a small industry event to a phenomenon, drawing fintech innovators, disruptors, and visionaries from across the globe. It’s not just a conference, it’s a celebration of the incredible progress and limitless potential of the fintech industry.
“CFS is an event my team and I look forward to each year. From attending the first-ever Cyprus Fintech Summit to our ongoing participation, nothing will keep us from being part of this outstanding experience. It’s a premier networking opportunity that has driven significant growth for my team and company. Beyond that, CFS plays a vital role in positioning Cyprus as an international fintech hub, driving innovation and connecting key players across the industry.” Andreas Orphanos, novusalpha.
