“By co-locating the Open Finance Show and Smart Data Show, we are offering a trio of events that aim to catapult the industry’s desire for an ‘open future’.”
Todd Clyde, chief executive officer of headline partner Token.io, said: “As the only event of its kind in the UK and Europe, Open Banking Expo serves as an essential meeting point for banking and payment professionals.
“It also provides an impetus for tackling vital issues and fuelling progress. What does it mean for Pay by Bank to be a mainstream payment method? Who and what is successfully driving mass adoption? How can we meet the urgent needs of merchants and big tech?”
He added: “Together with our incredible portfolio of partners, we look forward to reuniting the industry to tackle these and other critical opportunities.”
