Central banks and issuing authorities face pressing questions on cash resilience and banknote security in 2027. The Currency Conference 2027 brings together issuing officials and specialised suppliers to tackle operational and technical priorities in the cash ecosystem.
Dates and venue in Berlin
The Currency Conference 2027 runs from 24 to 26 May in Berlin. The conference venue is the JW Marriott Hotel Berlin at Stauffenbergstraße 26. A high-level workshop is scheduled for 24 May from 11:00 to 12:30 as a closed roundtable for government organisations and state printworks under Chatham House rules.
Attendee profile and supporters
Attendees include heads of currency issuance and distribution from central banks and monetary authorities, alongside leading industry suppliers in substrates, inks, security features and minting. The organiser lists multiple sponsor tiers and exhibitors from the banknote supply chain, which concentrates technical buyers and suppliers in one place for focused discussions.
Program highlights
The programme publishes an Executive Roundtable focused on supply chain resilience and a CR Research Partnership call for papers. Submissions accepted for the research partnership cover studies on cash access, demand forecasting, currency design and practical applications of AI in the cash cycle. The event also references advisory committee members from central banks and printworks who shape session content.
Commercial prospecting at The Currency Conference 2027
Sales teams should map target organisations by procurement role and technical need before arriving. Prepare concise technical dossiers that compare total cost of ownership, material specifications and proof of performance. In supplier meetings, lead with measurable outcomes such as processing throughput, defect rates and material traceability.
For business development at mints or security printers, schedule short briefings around the conference social programme and use workshop outputs to start technical follow-ups. Delegates offering research or case studies stand to gain visibility by aligning materials to the CR Research Partnership themes.
