The Sibos digital journey will evolve in 2021
From 11-14 October 2021, we will build on the strength of our first all-digital event in 2020, which welcomed more than 22,000 delegates, to drive engagement on key and emerging issues. Through diverse speakers and thought-leadership, we’ll spark community connections via new collaborative networking initiatives and provide even more of the insight and inspiration that is unique to Sibos.
Unforeseen events and feats of great ingenuity have brought transformative change to our society and the financial industry. The Sibos conference will examine how digital acceleration, technological innovation, change and risk intersect with some of the most pressing topics of our time, addressing everything from AI, Big Data, CBDCs and cybersecurity to cloud computing, ethical investing, diversity and inclusion in banking, and much more.
Together with our community and partners, we’ll create an inspiring and engaging programme that will bring the financial community together online from 11 to 14 October.
We’ll be announcing more details, including the conference theme, in due course – stay tuned!
