The last few years have altered FinTech, financial services and the world.  During NYC Tech Week, the brightest minds sit down to chart a course forward.

‍

Roundtable Format

• We will have seven tables of eight leaders at the Innovation Roundtable.  Each table will be a mix of bankers, FinTechs, investors, and other members of the ecosystem.

• We'll be using a modified lean coffee format: highly structured but agenda-less.  Strange, right?  But don't worry, this ensures participants have a voice in driving the real-time agenda.

• With lean coffee, YOU decide what we talk about. To kick off the session everyone will vote on their favorite topics. This allows the group to truly focus on what matters most to them.

• To facilitate this, we need your help by sharing the three topics that you would like to discuss. They can be anything across technology, finance, investing, innovation, and so on.

‍

Sample Topics

• Buzzwords or reality. What new technologies are you implementing this year and why? AI, ML, DeFi/Tokens?

• What opportunities do you see to bring best-in-class financial services to the masses and how is your company looking at financial health?

• Embedded finance & data have taken the industry by storm. What sub-verticals are next? What does the world look like when many financial services are offered indirectly?

• How are you maintaining your product innovation edge? Agile? Experimentation? Acquisition? Innovation programs? Recruiting?

• What aspects of your stack could be consumed by DeFi? Could revenue streams be disrupted by a DAO?

• What’s a novelty in FinTech now that will soon be commonplace?

‍

• Forge relationships between FinTech founders and bank innovators
