Fintech Week 2018: SKW Schwarz discussing latest trends at Germany’s largest Fintech event

SKW Schwarz joined some 1,500 individuals from the Fintech and banking sectors for a week to discuss current trends, concepts, and possible solutions. Questions include issues related to “digital branding,” “digital transformation in banks,” or “How to make bank-Fintech cooperation work?”. This year’s Fintech Week focused on the FinForward conference. Numerous forward-looking topics, including “tech giants,” “machine learning,” as well as “Blockchain,” which is trendy now, were the subjects of lectures and discussions. As a speaker, lawyer Florian Hensel provided conference attendees with a view on the legal aspects of Blockchain.

Fintech Week was held for the third time now in Hamburg from October 15 – 20, 2018, with the law firm of SKW Schwarz Rechtsanwälte being one of this year’s main sponsors. In addition to Florian Hensel, lawyers Jens Borchardt, Yvonne Schäfer, and Joana Christin Seidel represented the firm.
