Understand Innovation: Financial Sector Unlocks New ICT Business Opportunities

Theme Background

Fact: 30% of Australia's Financial Services community expenditure is on ICT.

AIIA invite you to find out more about exciting and changing times within the Banking & Financial sector and understand how ICT organisations can play a part in solving the challenges faced by this industry.

This briefing includes a panel of senior executives from across the financial services industry some armed with making key decisions with regard to ICT procurement.
A panel discussion will take place on how business opportunities, competition, regulation and technology are changing the nature of the Australian financial services industry.

Thought Provoking Questions Will be Answered:
• How is the industry changing and what are the ICT industry business opportunities?
• What innovation can we expect to see in the next 2-3 years?
• How quickly is investment in ICT rebounding after the financial crisis?
• What are the key priorities for buyers of ICT in the financial services industry?

Please join us for a stimulating discussion, and an opportunity to meet financial services industry and ICT industry colleagues for an enjoyable, top quality networking lunch.
The event will also feature the launch of AIIA’s Financial Services special interest group, providing a regular forum for the industry to interact around financial services opportunities.

This forum is truly focused on ICT opportunities in the banking & financial sector, AIIA members in 2009 requested more industry focused events due to the stark differences in business practices, we are fulfilling that need.
