88 Forex Brokers Expo 2028 Sydney
The Asia-Pacific edition brings brokers, liquidity providers, platform and payment technology, prop firms, affiliates and introducing brokers together for a day of exhibition, conference sessions and meetings on Sydney Harbour.
About the expo
The 88 Forex Brokers Expo is a one-day exhibition and conference for the retail trading industry. The exhibition floor is where brokers, liquidity providers, trading platform and technology vendors, payment providers, regulatory and compliance consultants, marketing agencies and prop trading firms meet the people they do business with. The conference stage runs alongside it with keynotes, panels and workshops, and a meetings lounge is set aside for the conversations that need a table.
It is organised by 88 Forex Brokers, the broker research wiki, and it is open to the whole industry rather than to a single broker's clients. Traders, affiliates and introducing brokers attend to meet the brokers and platforms they work with. Brokers and vendors attend to meet each other and the partners who send them business.
The dates below are confirmed. The venues, the agenda and the sponsor and exhibitor pricing are being finalised and will be published here. Registering your interest now puts you first in line when passes and stands open.
The Sydney edition
Australia is one of the largest retail forex markets in the world, and ASIC-licensed brokers serve traders across Asia-Pacific from Sydney.
The programme is built for the region's trading hours, with sessions on Asia-Pacific regulation, cross-border client onboarding and payments across the region.
The evening networking reception is held on the harbour.
