HFA Roundtable — European Sovereignty in Fintech
The financial landscape is shifting — and the decisions being made in Brussels today will shape the competitive reality for fintechs across Europe tomorrow.
This roundtable brings together HFA members for an in-depth discussion on European Sovereignty in fintech, covering three of the most pressing topics defining the future of digital finance:
Open Banking — connectivity, competition and control
With Edy Bruinooge, Co-Founder & CCO of ibanXS.Digital Euro — what it means for payments, banks, and fintechs
With Kirsten Hoornstra, Team Lead for the Digital Euro Pilot at the ECB, alongside Bas van Donselaar, Managing Partner at PaymentGenes.Identity & Schemes — the infrastructure battle shaping Europe's financial future
