Details

Our flagship event and Belgium’s largest banking conference is back with more than 400 professionals. This time we will be "all-under-one-roof" in Tour&Taxis with our usual 2 tracks: one on payments and one on banking and for the first time an all new fraud track, conveniently located alongside the exhibition booths and demo stage, with the addition of a dedicated networking space and more exciting additions to be announced soon!

Much like a caterpillar evolving into a butterfly, banks are undergoing an internal metamorphosis, reshaping their core structures, strategies, and cultures to thrive in a rapidly changing environment.

This conference will bring together industry leaders, innovators, and visionaries to discuss how these internal transformations are driven by technological advancements, regulatory shifts, and evolving customer expectations. Discover how banks are embracing change, fostering innovation, and emerging stronger and more agile.

Engage in thought-provoking discussions, gain insights from pioneering experts, and network with peers who are leading the way in this exciting metamorphosis. Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of the transformation that is redefining the future of banking.

Join the demo stage and workshops for concrete and interactive takeaways that can be used in your day-to-day job the day after.

Attend our inspiration sessions that make you rethink the bank of tomorrow and envisage the beautiful butterfly that will emerge as a result.

Get a better understanding of how the latest trends in payments will impact the metamorphosis.

Get in touch if you believe your contributions can be an essential clue in the paradigm shift in banking.
