Join GFT and Engine by Starling, the technology arm of one of the world’s leading digital banks Starling Bank, for this engaging lunch session. We’ll explore how a digital mindset isn’t just about offering online and mobile channels; it’s about redefining how you deliver value. As well as discuss the difference between mobile only banking and digital banking, and how modern cloud native technology enables a fundamentally different way of running a bank that customers love and is efficient to run. The session will spotlight Salt Bank, Romania’s first digital bank, which was built and launched in just 12 months on Engine’s platform and masterfully integrated and implemented by GFT.
