The next financial frontier: regulations, risk, and resilience

IN-PERSON EVENT

18 January 2024, Europe 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm CEST

In partnership

Lunch Location: Four Seasons Hotel

Welcome to this Meet the Boss event in partnership with Hitachi Vantara and Kyndryl.

In this rapidly changing digital world, the financial industry encounters plenty of challenges in staying competitive. Remaining ahead involves embracing innovation, working sustainably, and upgrading IT systems. And arguably the biggest hurdle is complying with new regulations like the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), which demands extensive measures.

At the same time, there's a crucial need to modernize and utilize new technologies for better operations. AI stands out as a crucial tool, offering unmatched potential in handling data as a valuable business asset. Leaders must navigate this strategically. So, over the course of this evening, we will explore this, one bite at a time.

From the entire team at Meet the Boss, Hitachi Vantara and Kyndryl, we look forward to hearing your thoughts and providing you with the right discussions to keep you on course, every course.
Bon Appetit!
