“We look forward to hosting this event covering innovations in alternative finance,” said Debra Walton, chief content officer for Thomson Reuters. “The previous two conferences brought together industry thought leaders who are working to reshape access to capital and investment, and in our third year of hosting this event, we are enthusiastic to see what insights these innovators provide.”

Speakers include the founders and executives of Avant, Funding Circle, SoFi, Kabbage, Upstart, DriverUp, LendKey, BBVA, PatchofLand, Auto One, Credit Suisse and Metropolitan Capital Bank & Trust.

“With every year, the intricacies of the alternative finance space grow. Concurrently, so does the attention from more traditional corners of the finance industry.
