In November I participated at the Banking 4.0 conference, held at the beautiful Sinaia Casino on 22-23 November 2023. Now in its 9th edition, the conference brought together banking professionals, fintech companies and technology providers under the theme “From tech-centric to human-centric: Conversational banking in digital time”.
On the first day I was part of a panel titled “Cloud banking – between operational efficiency and cyber security”, where we discussed how cloud adoption is transforming the banking industry and the security challenges that come with it. My co-panelists were Bogdan Costea (Head of Information Security, ING Bank Romania) and Bogdan Dumitru (VP of Product, Kubeark), with Calin Rangu (Digital Economy Expert, Vice-president CIO Council) moderating the discussion.
On the second day, together with Cosmin Pascu (Solutions Architect, AWS) we delivered a workshop titled “AI solutions in banking”, where we walked through practical use cases of AWS AI and machine learning services in the financial sector.
It was a great event with very engaging discussions around open banking, digital identity, payments innovation and the role of cloud and AI in the future of financial services. I was glad to have the opportunity to represent AWS at such a well-organized conference in one of Romania’s most scenic locations.
