Eventbrite - 2015 Bank Innovators Lab Day - London

Our Innovators Lab Day returns to London on 9th February 2015. Our Lab Days are not lectures, or conferences or demonstrations– we roll up our sleeves and work through ideation, design thinking and creative problem solving techniques, together– in a safe, confidential and curated environment. You will return to your organization with new ideas, new contacts, and new tools to help you get things done.

“I met some great people and the ideas have really started to flow.”

Here’s what our last Bank Innovators Lab Day looked like in New York:

Our first Bank Innovators Lab Day, and our European debut, in February of 2014 was a rousing success. After an inspiring and provocative morning keynote from American Banker 2012 Banker of the Year Brett King, 50+ bank innovators rolled up their collective sleeves and collaborated to explore the opportunities and issues in retaining and engaging customers in the face of digital disruption.

Attending Finovate?

Before seeing several dozen companies show the latest in financial technology in back-to-back seven-minute demos over two days, you need a chance to gather with other bank innovators and process what you experienced, and begin to put some context around how these new ideas might fit in to your own strategic priorities. Before you get back to your colleagues at the “business prevention department”… The Bank Innovators Council will help you do just that, and a whole lot more. We can also help you save 20% on FinovateEurope registration by using the code BIC20 at Finovate.com/europe2015

“Excellent insights to set the scene.”
