Amsterdam, Netherlands

The 2026 Converge by actuary.aero event, which took place from the 14-16 of April in Amsterdam, was a remarkable success.

About the event

The 4th edition of Converge brought together a curated group of leaders across travel, payments, risk, and insurance in Amsterdam to explore how the ecosystem is evolving, and how collaboration can unlock smarter, more confident growth.

This year’s event highlighted the growing importance of combining data, risk management, and insurance to support better decision-making in an increasingly complex environment.

Key highlights:

The growing role of insurance as an enabler of payment risk management, with more data-driven and flexible approaches gaining traction

The need for greater data visibility across the payments chain as a single source of truth for collaboration and trust

The evolution of AI from concept to application, with a focus on practical use cases

Ongoing transformation in B2B payments and airline retailing, reshaping how value and risk are shared

The emergence of new schemes such as Wero, adding both opportunity and complexity to the European payment landscape

The 2nd edition of the Airline Payments Academy Masterclass providing a structured deep dive into payment fundamentals and risk, and setting the tone for the discussions that followed

Converge is designed for meaningful interaction. Attendees consistently highlight the value of connecting with the right people and engaging in relevant, practical discussions with roundtables and informal exchanges remaining central to the format. At its core, Converge brings together data, expertise, and risk perspectives, creating the conditions for better decisions and stronger collaboration.

All of this was made possible thanks to our speakers, partners, attendees, and sponsors, whose contributions created a thoughtful and dynamic environment.

We look forward to continuing these conversations and building on this momentum at future editions of Converge.
