What you likely need
You sit at the intersection of institutional finance and the emerging European startup ecosystem, which makes curated small-group gatherings your highest-leverage format — not panels, but intimate dinners where your regulatory credibility opens doors that founders and VCs can't access alone. The most valuable Festival events for you are ones that translate your ECB and IMF network into concrete advisory, angel, or partnership relationships with fintech and policy-tech founders who need exactly what you carry. You'll get the most from rooms where you're the bridge, not the audience.
