In a recent LinkedIn post, Arun P. discusses Block Convey’s planned return of Money Talks #3, a one-day AI finance hackathon in New York City scheduled for November 21. This article reports on Arun P.’s post and its description of an event designed to bring fintech builders together with people working across finance.
“New York is where finance gets built.”
A day built around a real financial problem
According to Arun P., the event will ask participants to choose a genuine financial problem, develop an AI-driven solution in a single day, and present their work to an audience that includes startup founders, experienced operators, and Wall Street professionals. The format connects problem selection, rapid development, and a live pitch in one event.
“Develop an AI-driven solution from the ground up over the course of a single day.”
That structure places emphasis on applying AI to a defined finance challenge, rather than on presenting a concept alone. Arun P. describes the hackathon as an opportunity for participants to build quickly and show the resulting project directly to people in the industry.
Presenting work to industry participants
As Arun P. notes, the pitch audience is part of the event’s appeal. The post highlights developers, researchers, and fintech builders as potential participants, and frames the live presentation as a way to put their work before people shaping the financial ecosystem.
“Present your project live to startup founders, experienced operators, and Wall Street professionals.”
Who the event is aimed at
Arun P.’s description is broad: the invitation is not limited to one job title, but extends to people building or researching fintech and AI applications. The post presents the hackathon as a venue to demonstrate a project to a finance-connected audience. It does not specify judging criteria, prizes, team size, or registration terms.
What the post emphasizes
The announcement’s central proposition is a compressed path from problem to prototype to presentation. Participants are invited to work on a financial use case, create an AI-based solution during the day, and then pitch it in person. Arun P. positions New York as the setting for that exchange and describes the event as a chance to showcase work.
The post also includes a registration link for Money Talks #3. Readers interested in the event can find further details through the link Arun P. shared: the Money Talks #3 event page.
