I would like to warmly thank all those fintech lovers and passionate people that have supported our non-profit organisation, striving to promote and animate our exciting financial services sector. In particular, many thanks to our supporting partners that have demonstrated the resilience, the creativity, and the positive entrepreneurial attitude of those few that do not let themselves dismantled by the crisis, on the contrary!

0credit
Aguilonius
Aion Bank
0credit wants to simplify the access to home ownership by letting people buy their dream home with no down payment and no lengthy or intrusive credit application. It is basically the rents that gradually ramp the user up into ownership of the home he lives in. We’ll let him do that during 3 to 5 years until his rents represent a sufficient portion of the requested down payment needed to buy the home. We ll then invite him to exercise an option to fully buy it and transfer him to a more classic financing option. Our solution is as seamless as leasing a car and at 0credit we like to say that we are the best alternative to a bank loan and an innovative solution between buying and renting.
Aguilonius is a niche player in the domain of RegTech, providing software and services to financial institutions to comply with regulatory requirements.
Aion Bank is a new full service, subscription-only digital bank that is designed to help its members save money. Headquartered in Brussels, Aion operates under a Belgian banking licence and combines the best in technology with the breadth of services and guarantees of a traditional bank. Aion Bank wants to completely rewrite the rules of banking and change the system of hidden fees and cross-selling products. Aion’s unique subscription model gives members access to all-inclusive banking, including a number of money-saving products, very high interest rates on savings accounts, competitive rates for loans, and Aion never charges its Premium Members extra fees or commissions for any of its services.

The ability to pay bills fast and easily every month and avoid fines for late payments. This is a universal need for businesses and individuals alike that was made even more painful because of the variety of formats a person can receive a bill: on paper in the post, digital by email, SEPA. On average, Belgians pay between 20 and 50€ per month in fines for late payments, which sometimes translate to court hearings and executors getting involved. Our goal is to help people avoid these fines by providing an easy and fast system that could save them over 600 € per person per year.
POM’s mission is to eliminate useless time and effort spent on inefficient systems and by doing so to free up space for the more important things in life. That’s why POM stands for Peace Of Mind.

Ampliphae
Automated Intelligence
The Robot Exchange
Datatics
Ampliphae will empower you to get serious about adopting SaaS to accelerate innovation. The SaaS marketplace is huge and specialised, meaning your organisation is likely using hundreds of apps over and above your well-known enterprise apps. Unfortunately, cloud-delivered SaaS means you don’t have total control over your software, data and the risks involved. Ampliphae automation empowers you to understand the benefit-risk balance of the huge volume of SaaS that is penetrating your organisation.
Automated Intelligence is a RegTech provider which transforms how firms manage their unstructured data through our cloud-based governance, risk and compliance platform. This GRC platform is specifically designed to provide highly regulated Financial Services firms with unique insight into their data, allow them to report against their data holdings and mitigate their risk exposure through automated data governance.
The Robot Exchange is a major force within the Robotic Process Automation space. The benefits of using The Robot Exchange are our innovative solutions, the return on investment business cases and the speed of development and return that all of our clients experience. We focus on delivering SaaS platforms that enable and empower our clients but also deploy AI and ML solutions to help you make better decisions. On RPA we not only deliver UiPath automations but, increasingly, we deploy our own Evolv RPA solution which gets the job done quicker but also has the advantage of better commercials.
Datactics specialises in self-service data quality and matching software designed for non-technical business users in financial services firms. The platform helps to eliminate roadblocks common in data management where firms are overly reliant on IT to interpret and hard-code rules into core systems. Solutions ensure compliance with data-driven financial regulations; deliver a true “singlecustomer view”; and increase the accuracy, and reduce the cost, of AML & KYC functions.

Our speakers will show that Digital Finance can help the world be more resilient and adaptable. And how it can contribute to improve inclusion, provide new users with access to the financial services and improve diversity balance.

NOTES Protecting The Future By Securing Today We are more connected than ever before and as our cyber ecosystem evolves, so do the threats that can undermine the integrity of our communications, financial transactions and more. As cyber criminals and Nation-States persistently look to take advantage of vulnerabilities within the ecosystem, it is imperative that we undertake a holistic approach to our security by developing and harnessing new technologies, artificial intelligence and machine learning. We look at how Mastercard is committed to protecting the digital ecosystem by providing our customers with the latest technologies and products, and demonstrate how we work with customers and industry partners to prevent, identify and mitigate cyber crime.
