MPC21, the Mobile Payment Conference, is being held August 17th – 19th this year in Phoenix, AZ.
MPC recently announced event highlights and the speaker lineup for their 2021 Digital Commerce Event.
Scott Goldthwaite, President of Aliaswire, has been announced as a keynote speaker.
Scott will be speaking about new Banking and Fintech solutions for financial institutions and their commercial clients.
Banks have an opportunity to be stable, well-financed technology disruptors when working with appropriate partners. By partnering with technology providers, banks can combine their financial strength and market power with the innovation and speed of high-tech product companies, enabling banks to compete against newly formed fintech startups.
To talk more about how banks can differentiate themselves from fintechs through strategic tech partnerships and what that means for corporate innovation, PaymentsJournal sat down with Scott Goldthwaite, President at Aliaswire, and Steve Murphy, Director of Commercial and Enterprise Payments Advisory Service at Mercator Advisory Group.
