The UK Receivables Finance Connect Conference 2025

Welcome to the UK Receivables Finance Conference 2025!

The UK receivables finance industry will take a major step forward this autumn with the launch of the Receivables Finance Connect Conference, taking place on November 25, 2025, at County Hall, London.

The receivables finance community is coming together. Join senior industry leaders, operational experts, and technology partners for a one-day event dedicated to shaping the future of receivables finance.

Running alongside the Asset Finance Connect UK Autumn Conference, this event will bring together senior executives, lenders, technology partners, and operational specialists to address the key challenges and opportunities shaping the future of receivables finance.

The conference is headline sponsored by Dancerace, a leading technology provider to the receivables sector.

Why attend

• Be part of the launch of the Receivables Finance Connect Community
• Hear from leading CEOs and operational innovators driving sector change
• Join interactive roundtables tackling key themes: marketing, technology, diversity, and product innovation
• Help shape the industry action group committed to growth and transformation

What’s driving this movement

At a recent industry dinner hosted by Dancerace and Finance Connect, over 20 CEOs from leading receivables organisations resolved to revitalise the sector, identifying the need for:

• A stronger community of leaders and practitioners
• Simplified, customer-focused products fit for the 2030s
• New routes to market and talent pipelines as banks step back

Receivables Finance Connect is their answer.

Get involved

Edward Peck, Founder of Finance Connect, said: “We look forward to inviting the CEOs to return – but more importantly, for them to invite their key staff to engage in a day of roundtable discussions and interactions.”

The Receivables Finance Connect Conference 2025 will set the stage for a revitalised, collaborative, and forward-thinking receivables industry — ready to meet the challenges and opportunities of the decade ahead.

Shaping the future – reimagining receivables finance for the 2030s

This conference will provide an opportunity to consider what the long-term future might look like, but it will also seek to derive key action points – what we might do now to make that future happen later. 

The event will be run in an unconference style, which is a conference where the main content comes from senior delegate interaction in small groups focussed on specific topics – you drive the agenda and themes, the learnings come from your discussions with your peers, and the process is designed to help experienced opinion-formers share and test their views among senior industry colleagues. Its way more interesting than a Powerpoint-fest and the other sectors where we run them, love the experience and outcomes. We are certain you will too.

Themes to be discussed

• Product (Innovation) How can we design receivables finance solutions to anticipate and fulfil the emerging needs of future customers?
• Performance (Market Growth) How can we drive sustainable, long-term growth across the receivables finance industry?
• Perception (Market Education) How can we reshape how SMEs and their advisers understand, engage with, and adopt receivables finance?
• People (Talent Development) How can we attract, develop, and retain the talent needed to lead the receivables finance industry into the next decade?
• Partnerships (Channel Strategy) How can we optimise direct and indirect channels to expand reach, deepen relevance, and maximise future market impact?
• Process (Technology & Customer Experience) How can we harness technology to deliver faster, simpler, and more value-driven customer experiences in receivables finance?

Headline Sponsor:

Welcome from Dancerace

Dancerace is thrilled to sponsor the first edition of the Receivables Finance Connect conference.

After ten years of tepid growth, the UK invoice finance industry is at a turning point.

Banks and lenders agree that our sector needs a new plan for growth, and to tackle the structural challenges that hold IF back. Products that are difficult to explain and manage; competition from other finance products; a dependency on some sales channels; a diminished talent pipeline.

These are complicated, connected problems. Solving them and building a strategy for the future of our industry will take collaboration, diversity and a commitment to action.

That’s what this November’s event offers. A chance for IF providers to come together, talk frankly and take steps towards real change. We’ll see you there!
