Watch out for upcoming webinars:

May 21: Digital Transformation for the Banks: Trends and Challenges

Banks and financial institutions have been among the first to switch to digital channels in order to allow reach and engage new customers in a more efficient way, reduce costs and improve overall performance and services. However, rapid technology development and increasing customer demands require constant updating and become a trend-chasing. As Gartner estimates, up to 80% of traditional banks will go out of business by 2030. What do they need to prepare for in 2020 and the upcoming years? What steps should they make today to stay in the game?

June (date to be announced): Cybersecurity in the World Switched Online

Former FBI Director, Robert Mueller, once said: “There are only two types of companies: those that have been hacked, and those that will be.” These words are especially relevant now that many businesses are going online. Organizations face an ever-increasing number of cyber threats. According to recent statistics, hacking attacks occur every 39 seconds, which is more frequent and advanced than ever before. Yet, over two-thirds of businesses are not ready to respond to a cyber-attack, despite growing investments in cybersecurity. A reasonable question for companies to ask is: what are the most efficient investments we can make to be protected from cyber-attacks?

There are more webinars to come by the end of 2020. Please note that dates and topics may change, and if so, these will be announced.
