About Global Innovation Institute (GI2)

Co-hosted with the Association for Financial Markets in Europe, this educational conference will take place at Le Meridien Etoile on the 20-21st September in Paris, France. The event’s theme, Transforming Capital Markets through Technology, alludes to the purpose and focus of this important gathering. This inaugural gathering will bring together over 500 senior executives and their teams who are driving strategic innovation in technology and operations from Europe’s leading financial institutions. The unique feature of this program is its visionary and forward looking agenda focused on what capital markets may look like in 20+ years, which is key for planning strategy in the immediate term.

This will be accomplished with a series of thought-provoking panel discussions featuring very senior level policy makers, technology consultants and industry leading peers. In addition, deep dive interactive breakout sessions will allow for more personal interaction with thought leaders on the implementation of new technology and best practices.
