Designed to bridge the gap between industry executives and future professionals, the summit aims to foster meaningful dialogue on the critical skills shaping the future of the financial sector and the technological adoption within traditional financial institutions.
AI and changes in financial markets
Participants will engage in meaningful dialogue on how artificial intelligence, shifting global capital flows, and market dynamics are actively transforming the financial industry. Special focus will be allocated to the essential skills required for the next generation of professionals, as well as the integration of AI in traditional banking and financial frameworks.
The prestigious conference is expected to draw top executives and industry professionals from leading global institutions, including Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, and Blackstone. The key program highlights will address financial leadership amid rapid transformation, the strategic implementation of AI by traditional financial institutions, and the emergence of fund managers, venture capital, and start-up enterprises.

Beyond the core panel discussions, PLUS NY 2026 will feature specialized question-and-answer sessions with experts in investment banking, private equity, and venture investing. The comprehensive agenda will also include a dedicated career fair and interactive mentoring sessions focusing on critical areas such as women’s leadership, personal branding, and the practical application of AI in finance.
Organizers anticipate approximately 750 participants at this prestigious gathering. Korean and Asian university students residing in countries of the Americas are invited to apply, with the application deadline set for September 21.
