On 1st February 2018, Europe’s leading digital wealth event for industry professionals returns to London for the 3rd year, this time at King’s Place in King’s Cross.
More than 450 delegates are expected to attend with over 40 speakers, and ten hours of lively debate and demonstrations, showcasing the latest trends and insights in robo-investing and beyond.
Targeting those working in the areas of digital, advice, investment, product, UX and compliance, the conference will showcase the latest automated propositions, such as micro-saving, pensions and hybrid platforms.
Exclusive features at the event include chatbots, on-boarding and next-generation customer engagement; there is also an in-depth look at how to systematise, scale and design asset management strategies using artificial intelligence (AI) and exchange traded funds (ETFs).
With automated investment management now established, the event will also look at the development of broader wealthtech propositions as open-banking, APIs and The Cloud all have an impact; developments in data, connectivity and distribution are expected to turn competition into collaboration across fintechs, wealth management and banking and the event will look ahead to fully integrated and cross-functional solutions.
Following last year’s success Robo-investing Europe has become the must attend event for digital wealth and financial technology. It is the opportunity to hear from industry experts designing state-of-the-art customer engagement and financial advisory platforms, and understand how ETFs are used to construct portfolios and deliver goal-based investing solutions.
In this fast moving environment, discover how data and AI are used to understand investor behaviour, manage compliance risk and deliver personalised content. Meet the investment managers, digital designers, technology innovators, executives and venture capitalists shaping the industry.
