Innovation in uncertainty: New business models to future proof banks | A roundtable discussion

Join us and key industry leaders for an exclusive roundtable session to discuss these key concerns for the regions’ Banks and Financial Services providers in partnership with MAMBU on the 6th of October 2022, at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, Dubai.

We are entering a time of economic uncertainty with rising inflation, supply chain constraints, hawkish central banks and geo-political tensions, to name just some of the issues to face. While many businesses handle great stress, others will benefit from the challenges. However, this period of resetting for the global economy could provide a window of opportunity for banks in the GCC and Middle East, bringing benefits to incumbents including new technologies and ways to work, cost and operational efficiencies, new customer segments and access to new talent pools.

Discussion points will be led by:

  • Grant Niven, Head of Group Digital, Banque Saudi Fransi
  • David Henry, Chief Operating Officer, Nomo
  • Manav Daryanani, Principal, Advisory, Mambu
  • Miljan Stamenkovic, General Manager MENA, Mambu

  • Hosam Arab, Co-Founder & CEO, Tabby
  • Pratikk Dalal, Chief Financial Officer, Al Maryah Community Bank
  • Barbara Biro, Head of Digital Ecosystem, RAKBANK
