Innovation in the FinTech Learning Landscape

The world we live in today and increasingly in the future is facing rapid technology change. This has been characterised as the 4th industrial revolution such is the scale of change. Recently at the World Economic Forum 2020 summit in Davos, this challenge was characterised through the prism of the huge upskilling and reskilling challenge that is facing enterprises and employees.

Where a workforce is a key element for performance and innovation creation, the need to develop key experts (talent) for innovation and to keep pace with cutting edge competitiveness is critical.

The FinTech Learning Labs (FTLL) talent development initiative is ajoint approach involving three key industry players in International Financial Services (IFS) sector, Pramerica, Optum (UnitedHealth Group), andAllstate; working closely with Letterkenny Institute of Technology (LYIT).

On this webinar participants will learn about success stories to date (businesses the FTLL have supported), the potential of FinTech to transform the NW economic region, the development of a digital corridor between Letterkenny and Derry, collaboration with local business in the development of programmes, as well as the content of the programmes such as the MSc in Innovation in FinTech.
