Check out our interviews alongside this leading industry event.

There is no doubt: the world is digital! And banking customers are changing their behavior based on the experiences they have on their daily digital journey. 67 per cent of the next generation’s banking customers will be digital natives. And these customers also expect their solutions to be available anytime and anywhere. This presents an exciting opportunity to build your bank around your customer!

Nevertheless, today‘s customers adapt their expectations around digital applications based on the experience they have with leading social networks, global marketplaces, and their favorite online stores. 

What is driving the digitalization of payments? What impacts do these drivers have on the financial industry? How can mobile payments be taken to a new level of security and user friendliness?

In this talk, G+D’ Digital Payments expert Alastair Thompson will give hands-on examples on the need for device-agnostic, digitalized payment services and how to turn disruption into innovation and carve out new revenue streams.

Livestream Discussion - The Future of Trade Finance

The interplay of Humans and Machines in AI-based Automation

Machine learning systems are now routinely performing complex tasks at unparalleled levels of performance across a wide range of applications. However, mission-critical applications such as those in financial services have a minimum tolerance for errors and error correction. Resultantly, the design of machine learning-based systems for such applications requires unprecedented levels of oversight and adaptability. 

An optimal system has the right level of interplay between humans and machines. Onfido employs a large number of machine learning models to deliver scalable, secure and frictionless identity verification for their clients, whilst giving clients accurate data they need to remain KYC compliant—so ensuring their models deliver real-world results is business-critical. In this interview we talk with Mohan Mahadevan, VP of Research at Onfido, to learn about how the constraints on these applications, the tradeoffs in an optimal system, and what the future looks like.
