As global populations become more diverse and mobile, and services more independent, disruption in technology sectors will evolve at an even more rapid rate. This is especially true in the financial industry, where financial technology, or FinTech, continues to be one of the fastest growing and rapidly changing industries. One of the major drivers is the influence of women in the financial services and technological worlds. Their talents and skillsets are allowing for new consumer and business applications and business models in these areas. By leveraging technology, the FinTech industry, and the women driving it are helping businesses become more efficient.

 

At the end of this session, attendees will be able to:

 

1. Understand what FinTech is and the influence that women have on the FinTech industry.
2. Examine how diverse perspectives in FinTech can increase business efficiency and help businesses to increase financial results.
3. Explain how FinTech will create a better financial ROI for customers.
