About this Event

An evening to challenge the noise, sharpen our thinking, and build what lasts.

Fintech moves fast, but not everything built in momentum lasts.

Building Beyond the Noise is an event for those who want to step back from hype and short-term wins, and think more deliberately about what they’re building for the long term.

The evening will combine guided individual reflection, live audience participation, a panel discussion, and small-group conversation focused on the real trade-offs that shape sustainable careers, companies, and impact. Expect honest discussion, practical insight, and purposeful networking with people building with intention.

This is not a pitch event or a passive panel, it’s a space to slow the thinking down and focus on what truly lasts.


Speakers
  • Iana Vidal — Head of UK Public Policy, Block Inc
  • Samuel Afolabi — Sales Manager, OpenPayd
  • Anthony David King — Founder, ADK Capital & ADK

Who should attend

This event is for:

  • Fintech professionals across the ecosystem
  • Founders at early to growth stages
  • Operators building side ventures alongside their day jobs
  • Emerging investors and ecosystem builders
  • Anyone thinking seriously about long-term impact, not just short-term momentum

If you’re building a career, company, or portfolio in fintech, and want to do it with clarity and intention — this evening is for you.
