Put simply, embedded finance is the integration of financial services or tools, traditionally obtained via a bank.

Companies with strong data collection, and a solid customer base, can adopt and introduce financial services tailored for their customer exact needs, and more importantly, at the
perfect timing. For businesses looking to capitalize on these new opportunities, the first step should be to assess existing processes and tools and determine which can be readily enhanced through an embedded solution.

Appearance of blockchain technology as a new trust layer over the internet provided the world with new opportunities as well. The industry has moved on from whitepapers to real-life applications with hundreds of pilot and commercial projects currently being run by world institutions and top private companies.

According to the latest research, the number of Crypto Unicorn companies increased by a whopping 491% in 2021 and M&A activities in the sector are heating up significantly with nearly 200 transactions last year.

Hands-on live workshop to brainstorm on your company’s future followed by a private networking event
