Summary
About this event
Now in its 18th year, the EMEA Trading Conference continues to be recognised as Europe’s largest one-day event dedicated to trading across the EMEA markets.
The conference is organised by the FIX Trading Community, the non-profit industry standards organisation at the heart of the global trading ecosystem. The agenda is developed entirely by senior representatives from firms active across the EMEA region, ensuring the content reflects the realities and priorities of today’s markets.
As with all FIX events, the conference is known for its high-calibre speakers, timely and relevant topics, and its role as a neutral forum where market participants, policymakers, and regulators can come together to exchange ideas and debate key industry issues.
The FIX Trading Community is CPD-accredited, meaning time spent attending conference sessions can be counted towards CPD hours.
This year’s programme focuses on life at the edge of change — examining the impact of regulatory developments, technological advancement, and evolving market design, and what these shifts mean for practitioners both professionally and personally.
