Challenger banks such as Revolut and N26 are on the march, acquiring more than 9 million users in Europe alone. Competitors, along with skyrocketing customer expectations have put banks’ largest markets and profit drivers at risk.

In the wake of these challenges, plus the ever-growing reach of tech giants, more and more banks are teaming up with FinTechs such as W.UP to play catch-up with disruptors. But can this new-found symbiosis help them both come out as winners?

Could unlikely friendships between incumbents and disruptors save the day for traditional banking? Join us in Vienna for our next Beyond Banking get-together and hear real heavyweights of established players, challenger banks and fintechs talk competition, collaboration and everything in between.
