FinTech Connector Switzerland Networking Lunch Cruise & VIP Dinner

Zurich is a vibrant and dynamic city full of history with old, colorful architecture along the Limmat River and sightseeing highlights like The Monuments, The Chagall Windows and Zurich’s very own mountains. From this fabulous city you can see the snow-capped mountains in the distance and the banana-shaped Lake Zurich which is surrounded among other things by the Albis and Pfannenstiel Hills.

There is no better place to host the FinTech Connector Cruise & VIP Dinner then in one of the most picturesque, renowned, and legendary international financial center cities.

We invite you to join us for what has become a yearly traditional event.

Check out last year's cruise in Stockholm Sweden to see how we do it...

This will be an unforgettable event where our global fintech community will meet in Zurich to connect on innovation, collaborate on fintech and blockchain initiatives, and create partnerships to innovate financial services.

Join us on this exclusive cruise where you will enjoy delicious food and traditional wine as you see a different side of the city from Lake Zurich while sharing innovation stories and creating new business opportunities.

The Cruise

The cruise will depart at 1PM as we set sail aboard the M/S Albis for a fun and relaxing 3-hour cruise around Lake Zurich.

The event will start with a welcome champagne toast, light networking, and a short introduction and welcoming message from our hosts. We will then move to the elegant dining room section of the boat for a culinary delight brought to you by Zürichsee Gastro.

Please note, you will also have more than enough time during and after the meal to network fruitfully with new and old friends and colleagues as you take in the sights of this beautiful city by the lake

More importantly, you will have an opportunity to meet our event sponsors and learn about what they are doing to innovate financial services for impact.

After we dock from our 3-hour cruise, you can spend more time on the boat and continue enjoying the conversation with drinks for another hour.
