Navigating Europe's evolving regulatory terrain, including landmark regulations like MiCA and DORA, is crucial for success in the fintech industry. This topic examines the challenge of balancing robust consumer protection with fostering innovation across the continent.

This session will explore how financial institutions and fintechs are pioneering AI-driven solutions, from hyper-personalised banking to advanced fraud detection, contributing to the continent's innovation.
