Finnotec 2017
The cordis, Auckland
3 Nov
Over 200 attendees convened at The Cordis (formerly Langham) for Finnotec 2017. With about 25 speakers and presenters from the US, UK, Latin America, Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand attendees were treated to a smorgasbord of inspiring fintech ideas, entrepreneurs and products.
Topics covered ranged from applications of blockchain and artificial intelligence, peer-to-peer lending, intellectual property strategies, to how to go about exporting your fintech ideas, scaling globally and many other areas. The day was rounded off by an international panel from the US, Hong Kong and Latin America taking attendees on a global tour of fintech. Networking opportunities were a-plenty over lunch and evening drinks and canapés.
