The Millennium Plaza Downtown Hotel will transform into ground zero for financial innovation on November 11 when WikiEXPO 2025 brings together more than 3,000 industry players under one roof. Organized by WikiGlobal with WikiFX as co-organizer, this year’s gathering promises to be the largest yet in a series that’s already made stops across Singapore, Sydney, Hong Kong, and Bangkok.
Five core themes are dominating the event: Fintech, Forex, Cryptocurrency, Web 3.0, and Artificial Intelligence. Over 70 exhibitors have signed on, alongside more than 50 speakers who’ve built careers at the intersection of technology and finance.
The attendees are the who’s who of the sector: Gustavo Antonio Montero from Carter Capital, Muhammad Umair Saeed of IoBM, and Amnah Ajmal, who made Forbes’ 2025 list of most influential businesswomen. The participants’ mix tells what WikiEXPO figured out well: bring everyone to the table, or the conversations are just mere paper tigers.
Who Shows Up and Why It Matters
Forex and crypto traders, venture capitalists, fund managers, blockchain developers, and DeFi builders. University researchers and policymakers will be attending the event. WikiEXPO has also created a place for investment bankers and big investors to connect and share ideas, and strike deals.
The format mixes panel discussions with one-on-one networking sessions, plus exhibitor booths where startups pitch directly to potential backers. The event is less about keynote speeches to passive audiences and more about creating the conditions where deals actually get made.
The fact that the event is happening in Dubai for the second consecutive year is not accidental. Dubai’s strong and well-organized system for watching over businesses has made it a top choice for investors who avoid risky markets.
Open market policies and forward-looking regulations have created an environment in UAE where innovation does not immediately hit a regulatory wall. WikiEXPO, running summits since 2019 under the tagline “Sparking Opportunity, Trading Safety,” picked Dubai precisely for that reason. Do head for the event that is absolutely free.
