Afraid your money might disappear into a black hole? Sent, and then… silence. No confirmation, no way to know where it is. When a transfer crosses borders, that silence shouldn’t be part of the deal.

MAGMA at Latvia Fintech Forum 2025: From Mauritius to Riga
At the end of September, our team will join industry leaders at Latvia Fintech Forum 2025, one of the most important platforms for shaping the future of digital finance in Northern Europe.
Just a little over a week after hosting our own Mauritian Electronic Payment Platforms event in sunny Mauritius, MAGMA is heading north – all the way to Riga. From the Indian Ocean to Northern Europe – this is exactly what we mean when we say we think globally 🌍.
On 30 September, the Latvia Fintech Forum 2025 will take place at the iconic Small Guild in Riga’s Old Town. This historic venue is more than just a beautiful setting – it’s a reminder that the future is impossible without the past. That is why we are always glad to return to the Small Guild, where tradition and innovation meet under one roof.

The Forum, organized by Latvijas Banka, the Investment and Development Agency of Latvia (LIAA), and the Riga Investment and Tourism Agency, has become a flagship event for the Baltic fintech ecosystem. It brings together regulators, innovators, and investors to discuss how fintech strategies across Europe are shaping the next chapter of digital finance.
This year, MAGMA will be represented by our colleague Vladimir Chernoshtan, who is looking forward to engaging with current and future partners, sharing perspectives on international B2B payments, and exploring opportunities for collaboration.
With our representative office in Riga, one of the key financial centers of Northern Europe, MAGMA is well-positioned to strengthen partnerships across the region. Our focus remains on providing reliable cross-border B2B payment solutions in most global currencies, with competitive FX conversion and dedicated client support.
We are excited to be part of the conversation at Latvia Fintech Forum 2025 – and even more excited about the new ideas and connections it will inspire.
See you in Riga on 30 September!

In a pre-summit discussion, industry leaders […]
