About this session
In enterprise banking, "wait and see" is no longer a safe option. While modern challengers move ever-faster to set new standards for customer experience, banks tied to legacy core systems face a growing drag on scaling AI beyond initial pilots, accepting tokenised assets, getting new products to market and back-office efficiency. With expectations rapidly shifting toward agentic, 24/7 banking, core engines built around overnight batch processing struggle to keep pace.
This closed-door session brings together CIOs, COOs, and Product Leaders to talk candidly about changing customer expectations, the costs of inertia and, practical strategies for low-risk modernisation.
