OVERLAND PARK, Kan.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TreviPay, the most-trusted B2B payments and invoicing network, announced today its inaugural two-day payments conference, TreviPay Crossroads, is coming October 2-4, 2024, to Kansas City. Exclusively focused on B2B, Crossroads will bring together 250 industry insiders and practitioners, and it is designed to give leaders the insights to boost growth, use automation to drive efficiency and prepare for the future of commerce via inspiring keynotes, case studies and deep-dive breakout tracks dedicated to the manufacturing, retail and travel sectors.
Taking the leap from old models to new innovations, to finding out how consumer trends are shaping business applications, the payments industry is at a crossroads. And with B2B eCommerce in the U.S. projected to reach a value of $3 trillion by 2027, nearly doubling in size since 2021, the growth opportunity with business buyers is greater than ever. Crossroads will offer attendees the tools and information to transform their payment programs to meet the specific needs of the complex B2B buyer journey.
“Crossroads is our commitment to igniting innovation by gathering fintech leaders who are focused on B2B and sharing the best practices our clients and partners have developed,” said Allen Bonde, CMO at TreviPay and the Crossroads conference chair. “It’s super exciting to see the program come together with a who’s who of industry experts and brands. As 2024 emerges as the year of B2B in fintech, the timing could not be better.”
Uniquely B2B, Crossroads will feature world-class content from keynote speakers, along with global brands, industry consultants and solution providers.
Tony Harris, CEO at THINC B2B, former CMO at Digi-Key Electronics and the Crossroads manufacturing track chair, added, “Crossroads is the hub for B2B payments and commerce leaders. There is nothing else like it!”
Added Kevin Permenter, Research Director, IDC, "The financial application user communities I cover are all aggressively looking at modern payment management strategies and the best options for leveraging embedded payments. The Crossroads event could be a key forum for learning about embedded payments and how to leverage payment management strategies to drive better productivity and profitability."
