From 18th to 20th May, Vilnius University hosts the interdisciplinary research workshop “FinTech: Finance, Technology & Regulation”. The workshop, organized in the Arqus Research & Innovation (Arqus RI) project framework, brings together participants from several European higher education institutions and keynote speakers from the Universities of Singapore and Cambridge.
The thematic scope of the workshop includes the European FinTech policy and its risks, regulatory strategies and consumer protection. Moreover, the workshop participants will discuss computational finance and artificial intelligence in the data-intensive domains of finance, government, business, as well as big data analytics. During the workshop, the participants will also debate security and privacy solutions, technologies for supervision and compliance, and digital transformation in banking, investment, insurance, environment, health and other fields.
“For me, financial technology is an example of innovation, combining math’s, IT, finance and law. Moreover, cryptocurrency is a currency that opens up many borders and changes many things in the world. But perhaps the most important thing is that this event is taking place here at Vilnius University.” – notes the Dean of the VU FEBA dr. Aida Mačerinskienė.
The Arqus RI project aims to enhance the research and innovation dimension of the Arqus Alliance. It also addresses current global societal challenges through intensified joint research, characterized by the pursuit of excellence, openness, transparency and effective engagement with society.
