Mobile wallets and bitcoin are not the only disruptions for the financial services sector. Digital disruption in numerous ways, like adoption of machine learning, artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, and big data is changing the way banks, insurance and asset management companies work. Further, IT and Information Technology Enabled Services (ITES) companies are working hard to provide solutions for this new paradigm. 

In this regard, Frost & Sullivan is hosting its Growth Innovation Leadership (GIL) Council - a Leadership Breakfast Session on Financial Technology (FinTech) and the Future of Financial Services at Frost & Sullivan Chennai on March 03, 2017 between 08-10 AM to provide an orientation on current trends in FinTech, the changing financial services sector, new business models, and growth opportunities for the ITES and the Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI) industries. 

This event is targeted at senior leadership in BFSI, IT and ITES companies.
