This November 26 and 27, the Shift Money Conference in Zagreb will gather experts of FinTech industry, including 10 prospective start-ups who will discuss with other conference participants new payment methods, blockchain and revolution in the loans and insurance business.
If someone asked you what is money now, and if you were asked the same question thirty years ago, your answers would wildly differ. Thirty years ago, when people talked about money the only things they related to that word were coins, notes, and checks. However, the emergence of the Internet and the rapid development of technology today gave many more synonyms for the word money: credit and debit cards, cryptocurrencies, mobile banking, contactless payments and similar innovations have changed the way we think about money and generally about finances.
The industry that encompasses it all is called financial technology, or abbreviated FinTech. Its foundations are currently shaking, as young people with new technological ideas and projects are forcing banks and other institutions to rethink the role of traditional money. That is why the Shift Money Conference wants to set Croatia as one the capital places in these early stages of industry’s transformation.
During the two days in November, Shift Money will bring together representatives of the most important companies and professionals from all sectors of the FinTech industry, who will discuss the future of money. On the stage, ideas and experiences will be presented by over 40 leading industry experts who will talk about new payment methods, blockchain, and revolutionizing loan and insurance business. Some experts come from companies of the likes of Barclays, The Economist, Citi Bank, Lloyds Bank, Mashable, Coinbase and many others.
In addition to experts, 10 start-ups from around the world will have the chance to present their ideas in front of the jury, investors and journalists at the Shift Money conference, and convince them that they are best suited to shape the future of FinTech industry. Projects like these are responsible for the changes that are coming to the forefront with each passing day, and are changing the way we use money.
