NextBillion - An Initiative of the William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan

Our flagship event, the SEEP Annual Conference gathers thought leaders and practitioners dedicated to promoting more inclusive markets and financial systems. The Conference offers a highly interactive platform for attendees to connect, engage and learn from each other about shared challenges and opportunities.

A rich variety of learning formats highlight practical experience and recognized expertise to maximize engagement:

• Peer Learning Sessions bring diverse perspectives and experience to critical issues within the four technical tracks
• The Innovation Challenge highlights new and experimental approaches
• Plenaries and Lunch Dialogues feature influential thought leaders and global trends
• The Training Expo imparts practical skills in proven methodologies and relevant tools
• SEEP members participate in interactive lunchtime Table Talks and the Annual General Meeting
