The discussion will be chaired by David Lee of Scotsman Conferences and held in front of an audience of fintech students, businesses and a range of other partners in Scotland's fintech community.
The discussion will be segmented into 5 main topics of 15-20 minutes each.
- The positive impact of fintech on society and people’s lives
- Can fintech be a force for financial inclusion and better mental health?
- How is fintech rising to the challenges of fragile consumer trust and confidence issues in technology and data?
- What opportunities does fintech offer in a rapidly-changing world of work and can it deliver enough of the skilled people we need?
- The dark side of fintech
