Art. Inspiration. Exchange.
On 29 October 2025, the finalix Forum took place at the Kunsthaus Zürich. Under the motto “Art. Inspiration. Exchange.”, participants experienced how the worlds of finance and art can intertwine in truly unique ways.
Following the exclusive art and architecture tours through the Chipperfield Building, the Forum offered an opportunity for inspiring discussions at themed tables – in a distinctive atmosphere for engaging conversations and valuable new connections.
Our Topic Tables
At the heart of the Forum were 17 themed tables designed to foster in-depth professional exchange. Participants were able to select the topics most relevant to them and engage directly with our experts.
