You’re invited to join your financial services leadership peers at the award-winning The Wolseley City, London, for an evening of networking, fine dining, and guided wine tasting; courtesy of Chief Wine Officer, Accenture & Amazon Web Services (AWS). Over a luxurious three-course meal, you’ll hear exclusive insight direct from transformation experts and discuss the cloud-powered path to modern FSI success. Throughout the evening’s conversations, you’ll be treated to a fine wine tasting from celebrated TV host and wine expert, Jane Rakison. Can we book your seat at the table?
The UK&I FSI landscape demands a major evolution from those who still rely on legacy infrastructure and disparate systems and teams. Through a comprehensive and managed transformation strategy, market leaders are boosting business resilience while addressing regulatory requirements and turning their IT functions into value centres that drive performance while reducing expenditure. This approach is being used by the likes of NatWest, and can help cut operating costs by 30%, accelerate time-to-value for new features from months to mere days, and skyrocket the modernisation of digital, data & analytics, and AI capabilities. And you can do the same.
Key discussion points
- Case studies of leading FSI organisations boosting business outcomes through transformation
- The necessary ingredients for successful, large-scale transformation
- Striking the right balance of tailor-made cloud and delivery expertise for FSI growth
This exclusive networking experience is open to just 12 senior business leaders at FSI organisations in Greater London. Invite a relevant senior colleague by contacting the Event Director—but spots are filling fast, so book yours now.
