Digital Finance companies introduced improvements in many processes and services, such as open banking or invoice financing. Thanks to them, innovations such as instant payments or reduced time-to-cash for SMEs, became widely available. However, there is still space for improvements, most notably in cooperation between Digital Finance and other financial, but also non-financial e-service providers, that might bring added value to end-to-end offerings.
The event will discuss open opportunities in two sessions: a first, in roundtable format, with a wider focus on building ecosystems, and the second, with several presentations, focused on technical solutions to interconnect previously separated services, where all stakeholders involved might profit in a win-win model.
