Panel Sponsor at Payments Canada Summit 2026

We are proud to be among the Lead Sponsors of the 2026 Payments Canada Summit, taking place May 5 - 7, 2026, at the Automotive Building in Toronto, Ontario. For over 20 years, the Summit has been a premier annual event, with over 2,000 payments experts, from financial institutions, payment service providers, government regulators, retailers, and technology service providers like Iris Software, in attendance.

Subramanian Viswanathan, Associate Vice President in our Financial Services Technology Practice, will moderate a key panel discussion, launching the Summit, on Tuesday, May 5, 8:30 - 9:30 a.m. EST. The session is entitled “Beyond speed: reimagining the value, intelligence and resilience of modern payments” and features four other industry leaders, all from major North American banks: National Bank of Canada, Royal Bank of Canada, Scotiabank, and TD Bank Group.

The panel will explore how modern payment platforms are enabling new business outcomes, supporting evolving customer and commercial use cases, and strengthening operational readiness as well as how platform, data, partnership and trust considerations are shaping the next phase of payment innovation in Canada and beyond.
