Date: 19. September 2024
Time: 14:30 - 22:00h
Location: Comtrade IT Club, Savski nasip 7, Belgrade

Every year, Comtrade System Integration traditionally organizes an event that brings together representatives from banks, insurance companies, and leasing companies at our Comtrade Club in Belgrade. During the event, representatives of the financial industry, along with our experts, share experiences on business and technological trends through presentations, panel discussions, and networking.

To provide more value to the participants of the event, we divided it into several segments:

I Introductory Presentation – Leading Economist of the World Bank and Consultant – Professor Dušan Vujović

The financial industry is one of the main drivers of economic growth and development. Through significant statistical data and insights, we will review key trends in the economy and the financial industry – from global to local

II Panel 1 – “Technological or Personal Expertise: What Comes First?”

In a time when the environment is dynamically evolving, and technology is gaining an increasingly vital role in achieving business results year after year, choosing technological directions and the team that will manage the technology becomes one of the primary strategic questions. The “teamwork” of human and technological resources is inevitable, raising the question of who is the “captain” of the team – whether institutions first reach a broad consensus on the technological direction and then select a team for implementation, or if a team is first formed that, based on its expertise, recommends and implements technological transformation.

III Panel 2 – “Balancing Local, Regional, and Global Technological and Business Challenges.”

Operating within multiple jurisdictions and markets with different business practices is a challenge faced by large financial organizations. The strength of the group and the ability to use tools and resources from a broader spectrum is significant, but it can also result in the trap that certain activities and projects will yield equally good results in multiple markets. The role of leaders at the local, regional, and even global levels, due to these specificities, carries additional responsibility and requires broad consensus for making strategic decisions.

IV Panel 3 – “New Generations. New Technologies. New Industry?”

The financial industry environment is significantly influenced by several important factors. On one side, new technologies, on the other, new generations of clients, both under the lens of continuous business growth and meeting shareholder demands. In a time when it is challenging to meet all demands, it is of utmost importance to clearly define the strategic direction and recognize all opportunities and threats, turning them into active or potential advantages for achieving business results.

“Key Expert Talk”
Simultaneously, we will have the opportunity to conduct interviews with leading industry experts and hear their perspectives on the topics we jointly cover at the event.
