The first article (summary) of some of my key learnings during the Nordic Fintech Week inspired by the many conversations, presentations, and debates that I managed to attend - in part or in full 😉 This article zooms in on especially the role of the board, governance and ethical considerations of AI in fintech and financial institutions. Quite sure that I have not captured it all and it is not necessarily a 100% correct representation of what was being said. So consider this an attempt to capture some of the main points filtered through what I found especially interesting and relevant 😃 Please comment and provide your thoughts and opinions. More to come when time allows. #nfw24 #fintech #cphfintech #fintechmatters Nordic Fintech Week, Copenhagen Fintech, David Grundy, Simon Schou, Corinna Covini, Marie-Louise Roth, Laura Kristine Østergaard Sørensen, Kristine Helen Falgren

Full on FinTech! Last week, I had the pleasure of spending two days in the company of the Nordic Fintech ecosystem, taking a deep dive into the future of finance. As expected, GenAI dominated the discussion. I also got taught on quantum computing from Simone Severini, discussed the boardroom of the future with Julie B. Galbo, engaged in a discussion with Lars Seier Christensen on how to counter the threats of deepfakes and cybercrime and Ronit Ghose assured me, that we can be optimistic when it comes to the innovation power of Nordic banks.
