3rd Annual X-Tech Europe 2019 | Center for Financial Professionals (CFP) | 14 October 2019 | The Tower Hotel, St Katharine's Way, St Katharine's & Wapping, London E1W 1LD, UK

Across two days, with three stages to select on each day, X-Tech Europe: Financial Services and Technology brings together practical, hands-on examples, case studies from leading financial services professionals to address the critical challenges being addressed in an ever-evolving world.

Why Attend?

Technology and finance are at a critical point of collaboration, as the financial services industry looks to combine traditional methods with new technological solutions. The industry continues along an increased drive for efficiency across departments, where technology prospects have never been more real and accessible. As the industry continues to develop and innovate its practices, it has never been more crucial to understand technology and innovation offerings and potential in order to stay ahead of rapidly advancing competition.

X-Tech Europe looks to provide both insight into solutions and technology usage across the industry, but how institutions are moving away from simple theory of the possibilities and making innovation a reality. The competition landscape has never been more fierce and institutions are forced to keep up or be left behind – join us to network with financial institutions, regulators, FinTechs, investors and industry innovators to find new ways for your institution to keep up!
