Buzzword Overload? | FF News at Money20/20 Asia 2025
At Money20/20 Asia 2025, the term ‘buzzword overload’ was hard to ignore… we hit the show floor at Money20/20 Asia to find out which buzzwords dominated conversations this year — and the verdict is clear: it’s all about AI. From generative AI to agentic AI, nearly every attendee we spoke to mentioned it as the most overused (yet unavoidable) trend.
But it’s not just hype. While some are rolling their eyes, others are leaning in — exploring how AI is reshaping marketing, payments, and fraud prevention across APAC. Plus, one guest highlights an emerging theme that’s not getting enough attention: geopolitics.
Tune in for a quick, candid snapshot of the hottest (and most exhausted) topics in tech and finance.
