- **Event Description**: Network APIs land in the US.  Join AT&amp;T, XConnect, Aduna &amp; GBG in Dallas. The API kickoff for US banks, fintechs, platforms &amp; enterprises.About this EventFor years, the telco, banking and enterprise sectors have talked about Open Gateway and the promise of Network APIs. In February, we stop talking and start doing. This is the first event in the United States bringing together AT&amp;T, Verizon, T-Mobile, XConnect, Aduna and GBG, with representatives from the carriers, to formally kick off real, production-ready Number Verify, SIM Swap and KYC Match API services across all major US carriers.This is not an education session or another high-level roundtable. It's a business event focused entirely on helping banks, financial institutions, fintechs and major platforms understand how to deploy Network APIs now that nationwide carrier coverage is finally in place. The goal is simple: enable real adoption, real integrations and real outcomes, not theory.At AT&amp;T Headquarters in Dallas, senior leaders from carriers, fraud specialists, risk experts and product teams will come together to examine the state of US fraud, demonstrate what is genuinely available today, and map out how the financial sector can upgrade authentication and stop account takeover using live network intelligence.Delegates will benefit from keynote sessions, carrier panels, live demonstrations, customer use cases and closed-door workshops designed to explore their challenges and opportunities. And because this is a launch event, all invited delgates will receive access to exclusive event-only pricing that won't be available publicly.Attendance is limited to a small group of selected delegates to ensure the right conversations happen in the right room. If you are responsible for fraud, risk, identity or authentication strategy in the US, this is your moment to be first to see the transformation Network APIs can deliver with a group of companies that are hitting the start button in the US.Please RSVP to register your interest. Attendance is subject to confirmation, and only confirmed guests will be able to attend.Date &amp; Time: February 4th 2026, Main event 12 PM to 5 PM, Dinner 6 PM to 8 PMHosted by: Aduna + XConnect + GBG + AT&amp;T + Verizon + T-MobileLocation: 1ATT, 208 S.

Each speaker will  explain why they are part of the discussion, how their organisation fits into the broader ecosystem, what delegates can expect to learn from them, and what they are seeing in their sector as Network APIs gain real momentum.?: 12:20 PM - 12:30 PMAduna Keynote - Anthony Bartolo, CEO.Host: Anthony BartoloInfo: In this keynote, Aduna will lay out its vision for the programmable network era and how standardised network APIs are reshaping the telecom ecosystem. Leaders will reflect on the progress since the Aduna Global Summit, highlight real-world adoption of CAMARA-aligned APIs across regions, and explain how operators, developers and enterprise partners are unlocking new identity, security and connectivity use cases at scale. Expect a narrative that connects strategic partnerships, expanding global reach, and the practical impact of network intelligence on fraud prevention, identity verification, customer experience and monetisation. The session will also frame where the API roadmap is headed next and why unified network APIs matter for both operators and enterprise builders in a mobile-first world.?: 12:30 PM - 01:00 PMState of the Fraud LandscapeHost: Gus TomlinsonInfo: In this session, GBG, Barclays and a payment platform representative will break down how the fraud landscape is shifting at pace, driven by AI-powered impersonation, advanced social engineering and increasingly mobile-centric attacks. Drawing on GBG’s global data and frontline deployments, Gus will share exclusive insight into how fraud is evolving across markets and why traditional controls are no longer fit for purpose. The session will outline a more holistic approach to fraud prevention, where network APIs play a central role in strengthening identity, improving signal quality and stopping attacks earlier in the journey. For banks, this is a clear-eyed view of what has changed, what is failing, and what needs to happen now to stay ahead.?: 01:00 PM - 01:25 PMOverview of Available Services &amp; Live DemosHost: Mark HarveyInfo: This session moves beyond theory into live execution. Mark Harvey, Matt Salisbury and Gautam Hazari will demonstrate how network APIs operate in real time, showing how capabilities like Number Verify, SIM Swap detection, KYC Match and KYC pre-fill work at the network layer. Attendees will see how identity signals are verified directly with the operator, how risk is identified earlier in the journey, and how these services can be consumed through a single API without adding friction for users. The focus is on what is available today, how it is deployed, and why network intelligence changes the economics of fraud prevention.?: 01:25 PM - 02:25 PMLunch &amp; Networking?: 02:25 PM - 02:55 PMCarrier Panel - Insights on current capabilities and the road aheadHost: Viktorija RadmanInfo: As fraud, identity and authentication challenges move into the network layer, carriers are becoming central to how trust is established in a mobile-first world. This panel moderated by Viktoija Radman brings together leading US operators AT&amp;T, Verizon and T-Mobile to share where network capabilities stand today, what is already live, and how carrier APIs and intelligence will evolve over the next 12 to 24 months. Expect a candid discussion on what enterprises can deploy now, what is coming next, and how carriers see their role shifting from connectivity providers to active participants in security, identity and fraud prevention.?: 02:55 PM - 03:15 PMTikTok Use Case: How Platform Giants use Network APIsHost: David SaiddenInfo: In this session, David Saidden will share how a global platform operating at massive scale is using network APIs to materially reduce fraud losses while delivering a significantly better customer experience. The talk will explore how network-level signals enable earlier, more confident decisions, cutting unnecessary friction for genuine users and stopping abuse before it impacts trust or revenue. With millions of interactions happening in real time, this use case shows how network intelligence can move the needle at platform scale, improving outcomes for both security teams and customers.?: 03:15 PM - 03:40 PMHow RealAgent® Uses Mobile Network APIs to Stop Account TakeoversHost: Jaime ZetterstromInfo: Legacy authentication tools are struggling to keep pace with modern fraud.
