TradeTech Architecture History
Worldwide Business Research (WBR) launched the TradeTech event series as
the premier senior-level conferences for traders and technologists in 2001 in Europe.
In 2005, WBR North America brought the events to the US market to rave reviews; and
now has TradeTechs annually addressing equity trading, trading hardware and software, FX
trading, derivatives trading, and more in New York, San Francisco, and Toronto. TradeTech
has become a global brand with events in Asia, India, Europe, Russia, and the Middle East.
TradeTech Architecture was launched in 2008 as the Financial Technology Congress (FTC).
120 capital markets technology executives attended to discuss ways to optimize
technology platforms and infrastructure. Vendors made up less than half the audience. The
event took a year off in 2009, but WBR responded to its customers’ feedback and needs by
bringing FTC back to the market for 2010, but with a new name: TradeTech Architecture.
TradeTech Architecture has been bringing financial technology executives together for the
past two years in London and Hong Kong.
