The $16 Billion Blind Spot: Why Fraud Is Still Winning

- Samantha Rodriguez, Senior Global Intelligence PM, Coinbase

Consumers lost $16 billion to fraud in 2024. The Industry Accord Against Online Scams and Fraud, signed in March 2026 by Google, Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, and OpenAI, finally acknowledged what front-line operators have known for years: nobody solves this alone. But voluntary accords have limits. AI is driving down the cost of fraud dramatically while raising the sophistication of every attack vector. Payment rails, crypto infrastructure, and marketplace platforms are all exposed. This panel brings together the operators actually building the defenses, across fintech, cybersecurity, payments, and AI infrastructure, to examine where the real gaps are, and who can close them.

CLIP - Insurance that Gains Customer Confidence
- Garrett Olson, Head of Insurance & ER, Wolt
- Ryne Ring, Insurance's Mad Scientist, Citadel
From:

Contractual Liability Insurance Policies (CLIPs) are reshaping how companies manage risk within guarantees, warranties, and service commitments. This session explores how CLIPs transfer a company’s contractual obligations—backing refunds, reimbursements, and performance guarantees across industries from software to peer‑to‑peer platforms. Using real examples like Airbnb’s host guarantee evolving into a regulated insurance obligation, attendees will learn how CLIPs provide financial security, regulatory compliance, and customer trust. Participants will leave understanding where CLIPs fit in modern risk management and how to leverage them to enhance product offerings and mitigate exposure.

Building Growth Through Trust: Reusable Verification in the Age of AI
- Abhi Chaudhuri, Principal Product Manager, LinkedIn
From:
10:45 AM
To:
11:15 AM
Trust and growth have historically been framed in tension. Trust mechanisms introduce friction. Friction slows conversion. Business metrics suffer. At LinkedIn, we challenged that assumption. In this session, we’ll share how LinkedIn reached 100M+ verifications, along with cross-platform data and lessons from LinkedIn, Adobe, and G2 on how reusable verification impacts engagement, sentiment, and trust outcomes.
