The Deepfake Summit

The Deepfake Summit, the first official event produced by The Prism Project and Acuity Market Intelligence, will convene on March 2, 2026 in Houston, Texas. This expertly curated, highly interactive, limited-participation executive forum brings together senior leaders from financial services, fintech, payments, government, biometrics, and digital identity to confront one of the most urgent and disruptive forces shaping modern payments and identity ecosystems: AI-driven impersonation technology, including deepfakes, synthetic identities, and agentic AI. As these technologies have evolved from isolated attack vectors into coordinated, global-scale fraud operations, organizations increasingly face critical infrastructure failure points that demand new strategies, architectures, and governance models.
Rooted in The Prism Project’s Resilient Trust™ framework, introduced in the 2025 Biometric Digital Identity Flagship Prism Report, The Deepfake Summit extends the research, analysis, and strategic models from The Prism Project reports into a live, interactive setting. Co-locating the Summit with the STA Identity & Payments Summit connects identity, payments, and fraud leaders at a critical moment, enabling deeper cross-sector collaboration as AI-driven threats increasingly cut across financial infrastructure and digital trust ecosystems.
The Summit empowers attendees with the knowledge, connections, and strategic insight required to anticipate and navigate the rapidly evolving impersonation threat landscape—while preserving privacy, compliance, and user trust. “The Deepfake Summit marks a natural evolution of The Prism Project—from research and frameworks to real-world engagement,” said Maxine Most, Founder of The Prism Project and Principal Analyst at Acuity Market Intelligence. “By co-locating with the STA Identity & Payments Summit, we are bringing identity and payments leaders together to address AI-driven impersonation threats that now span both ecosystems.”
