AGENDA
Keynote Sessions
Accelerate Cloud Transformation: How to Win with a Connected Financial Services Ecosystem
While the overall financial services industry has embraced cloud, for many organizations, their adoption and implementation of cloud has been anything but linear. Some are still at an early stage, while others have approached their cloud strategy in a piecemeal manner. Complexities like regulatory obligations, risk and compliance, resiliency, and data requirements create additional challenges. However, all understand that winning in the cloud will translate to data, digital, and organizational transformation.
In this session, hear from Snowflake executives and customers on how industry-leading financial services organizations are thinking about their cloud strategy. And they are partnering with Snowflake to derive business value, unlock transformation, and connect closer to the broader financial services ecosystem.
