WHY THIS MATTERS IN BRIEF

We live in an age of sci-fi startups, and for the investment community the speed of change and the style of change presents huge opportunities and threats.

Firstly, it was a great privilege to be asked to be this years Bravura Solutions keynote speaker at the annual Monaco Fund Forum event which this year, because of the global pandemic was a hybrid affair again which meant I delivered my keynote virtually.

Then, I changed tack and demonstrated how some of these same disruptive technologies, when combined with agile, flexible, scalable IT platforms, could benefit their own organisations by helping automate everything from contract negotiation to the customer experience, and accelerating the rate at which they enter and take advantage of some of these novel investment opportunities.
