About this event

What if you could go from a blank screen to accepting payments, all before lunch? And what happens when it's not a person clicking "Buy Now," but an AI agent spending real money on someone's behalf?

Join our sessions for Fintech and Security.

  • The No-Code Commerce Blueprint: From Secure Login to Paid Order
    by Amey Nerkar - session topics: Firebase, Payments

    In our first session, you'll roll up your sleeves and build a fully functional storefront from scratch using Firebase and Stripe, no complex backend code, no excuses. You'll set up a product catalog, lock down your data with security rules, and watch a real checkout flow come to life, step by step.

  • Programmable Trust: Securing the AI Payment Rail with AP2
    by Namrata More - session topics: AI Agents, Payments, Cloud AI Tools

    Then, things get interesting. Our second session takes you beyond the storefront and into the emerging world of AI-powered payments. When autonomous agents start moving funds, "trust" can't just be a buzzword; it has to be engineered. You'll explore the AP2 protocol and learn how every AI-driven transaction can be authorized, authentic, and fully accountable.

  • AP2 and the Future of Digital Commerce
    by Lambros Piskopos - session topics: AI Agents, Payments, Security

    Following that, Lambros will take what we have observed from the previous speakers and challenge the attendees' thinking about the future direction of payments.

  • Mission: Securing Data Used for AI Applications
    by Konstantinos Kechagias - session topics: AI, Security

    Then, a punchy workshop on safeguarding the data pipelines that power modern AI systems, where you will understand how to build AI systems on a foundation of secure, compliant, and trustworthy data.

  • KSafe: Building a Fortress – Hardware-Backed Encrypted Persistence for Kotlin Multiplatform
    by Ioannis Anifantakis - session topics: Mobile Security, Kotlin Multiplatform, Libraries

    Finally, explore KSafe, the world's most intuitive and feature-rich library for secure key-value persistence on Kotlin Multiplatform, and discover how on-chip encryption works for iOS and Android.

Four sessions. One thread connecting them: investing in security and making digital payments work, and ensuring they can be trusted.

Whether you're a maker ready to ship your first product or an architect designing the payment infrastructure of tomorrow, this is your launchpad.
