SC Ventures Lab Crawl Panel 7: Geoeconomic Rewiring: The Future of Cross-Border Finance
About Event
Geopolitical shifts are changing how capital, goods, data and talent move around the world. As markets fragment, new trade corridors are opening, cross-border commerce is changing shape, and traditional models of trade finance and financial intermediation are under pressure. This panel looks at how data, intelligent agents and new financing models can improve efficiency, visibility and trust across borders. It also covers how financial institutions, technology providers and policymakers can help businesses manage more complex trade ecosystems and build more resilient, connected economies.
On the agenda:
Trade in a fragmented world: how geopolitics is redrawing trade corridors, and what that means for businesses and their financing
AI in trade finance: using data and intelligent agents to speed up documentation, credit decisions and risk assessment
Unlocking working capital: alternative financing models for suppliers and SMEs that traditional trade finance struggles to reach
Digital assets on the trade rails: where tokenisation and stablecoins can improve cross-border settlement and liquidity
Building trust across borders: data sharing, visibility and compliance when counterparties sit in different regulatory regimes
Funding regional connectivity: who finances the infrastructure behind the next generation of trade corridors
