This year the conference titled People and the Digital Revolution: Advancing Our Social Mission through Technology will focus on the implications of the digital revolution on financial and social inclusion. We would like to explore how microfinance institutions can be proactive in embracing and making the most of technology to provide valuable opportunities for entrepreneurs, start-ups and social enterprises.  

Upwards of 600 participants are expected to attend the conference this year from East and West Europe, Central Asia, the Caucasus and even further afield. Representatives from financial institutions will be in attendance (banks and non-banking financial institutions, NGOs, investors, TA providers, European Commission representatives). 

The conference is jointly organised by the Microfinance Centre (MFC) and the European Microfinance Network (EMN). The event will be a meeting of minds and ideas and will be the perfect opportunity for members and other industry experts to network, exchange experiences, learn from an impressive line-up of guests and even lay the groundwork for successful partnerships going forward.
