Fintoberfest 2026

Where Fintech Meets Festivity

About the Event

Atlanta Fintech Week runs five days across the city. Fintoberfest is where
it culminates — the night the ecosystem stops presenting and starts talking.

Part Oktoberfest, part fintech reunion. 150 curated guests, one room, the
whole week converging. You’ll leave with the conversations the week was supposed to produce.

Why come? Because fintech is one of Atlanta’s greatest strengths — our city is home to global leaders, fast-growing startups, and the talent pipeline fueling the industry. Fintoberfest is where that ecosystem comes together in one place, to connect, showcase new ideas, spark partnerships, and celebrate the community that makes Atlanta the fintech capital of the South.

This isn’t just another conference or cocktail mixer. It’s a high-energy festival — with startup showcases, rapid-fire pitches, sponsor activations, and Bavarian-inspired fun — designed to make networking effortless, conversations unforgettable, and the fintech community stronger than ever.

At Fintoberfest, you won’t just attend an event — you’ll experience the spirit of Atlanta fintech at its best.

Your Festwirt

Robert “RED” Daniel is the Co-Founder of Atlanta Fintech Week and the Founder of Standups & Startups, the Southeast’s hub where hustle meets humor.

At Fintoberfest he serves as Festwirt, the Oktoberfest term for the host of the tent, the person responsible for whether the room has a good time. It’s a job he takes more seriously than the title suggests.

Fintoberfest is produced by Standups & Startups, in partnership with Atlanta Fintech Week, Fintech Atlanta, the Georgia Fintech Academy, and the ICBA ThinkTECH Accelerator.

Join the community, meet new friends and old, and find your way to succeed in Atlanta’s Fintech ecosystem.
