Innovative technologies are proliferating. From the renewed excitement around cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology to the challenges and opportunities of AI, individuals and organizations alike are discovering novel ways to live, learn, and earn.
Banks, financial services companies, and fintechs are no exception – which makes us all the more excited to feature futurist, digital anthropologist, and author Brian Solis as our FinovateSpring Out of the Box Keynote speaker at our upcoming fintech conference in May.
Titled The Cycle for Emerging Technologies: Which Will Really Matter to Financial Services Providers and Why?, Solis’ keynote address will encourage financial institutions to be proactive when it comes to engaging emerging technologies. Indeed, the extended title of his presentation warns: “If You’re Waiting for Someone to Tell You What to Do, You’re On the Wrong Side of Change.”
Referred to as “one of the more creative and brilliant business minds of our time” by Forbes, Brian Solis specializes in the impact of technological innovation on business and society. In his most recent book, Lifescale: How to Live a More Creative, Productive, and Happy Life, Solis discusses the challenges of – and solutions to – living in a world of ever-present digital distractions. His upcoming book, Mindshift: Ignite Change, Inspire Action, and Innovate for a Better Tomorrow, is designed to help people navigate, or even lead, in a digital-first, post-industrial era.
Formerly VP of Global Innovation for Salesforce, Solis is currently Head of Global Innovation for ServiceNow. As such, he leads vision, strategy, and programming for the company’s international innovation and Executive Briefing Centers. In addition to his keynote address on Day One of FinovateSpring, Solis will also join attendees for a book signing during the networking session immediately following his presentation.
FinovateSpring is coming to San Francisco, California, May 21-23, at the Marriott Marquis San Francisco. Visit our registration page today to save your spot and take advantage of big early-bird savings!
