Have we saved the best part of this year’s FinovateSpring for last? You’ll be the judge on Friday, May 10th when we turn from the entrepreneurs to the experts, analysts, and investors.
Our Content Day begins Friday morning with opening remarks from our chair and an expert insight into the most innovative technologies from our Best of Show Awards, courtesy of Beyond the Arc’s Steven Ramirez.
What follows is a day’s worth of keynotes, roundtables, fireside chats and debates on topics ranging from digital transformation in financial services to the rise and role of new technologies like AI. Friday will also feature four content streams: Community Banking, Digital Lending, Digital Payments, and Digital Banking, with their own addresses and panel discussions that we’ll highlight in an upcoming post.
Tickets are still available. And we’re looking forward to seeing you next month in San Francisco, California. In the meantime, here’s a look at who will be saying what on the final day of FinovateSpring.
