Thank You for Joining Us at Crossroads 2026
Thank you to everyone who joined us for Crossroads 2026. Together, we explored the ideas, challenges and opportunities shaping B2B payments, with candid conversations, new perspectives and connections across the global payments community.
Where the B2B Payments Community Came Together
Crossroads 2026 brought finance, sales and technology leaders together to talk candidly about where B2B payments are headed and what that means for the businesses building, buying and operating them. Explore highlights from the event, revisit the 2026 speakers and agenda, and stay connected to what comes next.
Keynote Speaker
HEIDI GARDNER
In this fireside chat, Heidi reflects on her path from an unexpected start outside the entertainment industry to The Groundlings and ultimately Saturday Night Live. Along the way, she shares how improv sharpened her ability to adapt, stay present and lead with confidence—skills that resonate far beyond the stage.
Woven throughout the conversation is Heidi’s enduring love for Kansas City. Even after years in New York and Los Angeles, Kansas City remains her emotional home: a city that shaped her creativity, keeps her centered and continues to inspire her work.
