 Digital Transformation in Financial Services: From Output to Outcome - Implementing a Product Operating Model for the Age of AI

As digital transformation accelerates in financial services, organisations face growing pressure to deliver greater value with fewer resources. This webinar will explore how leading organisations are moving from traditional project-based delivery to a Product Operating Model – to align strategy, automate processes, drive efficiency and deliver greater value and innovation at a pace far beyond their peers.

Join Dr Mik Kersten, Chief Technology Officer at Planview and author of Project to Product as he shares insights on implementation lessons learned from the past six years of the shift from Project to Product. Mik will then dive into real-world examples from industry leaders such as NatWest, Huntington Bank and Zurich, and provide insights and practical steps for organisations to implement an AI-ready Product Operating Model. Learn how integrated solutions, real-time portfolio management, and automated financial data workflows are reducing costs, improving visibility, and futureproofing operations and uncover actionable strategies and frameworks to thrive in the evolving digital landscape.

Registrations open until Monday 21 July. Registration requests submitted beyond this date will be processed on a case-by-case basis.
