He is working with Financial Institutions for establishing their digital strategy in alignment with business strategy. The digital strategy would generate value through increase in digital footprint / revenues / cross-sell. This would also reduce costs through productivity gains, automation and process realignment. Digital initiatives as part of strategy would include loan origination, Cross sell platform, Omnichannel platform, Analytics & AI, Mobility and Fintech tie-ups.

The banking and financial services industry is undergoing a period of unprecedented disruption, which is re-shaping the competitive landscape.
Criterium Group believes we’re experiencing a fundamental change in how people manage, save and spend their money –which means banks and credit unions will need to re-imagine how they deliver value to customers and members.
We’re experiencing a disintegration of the financial industry. But disruption is exciting, not scary. As our relationship with money evolves, there are endless opportunities to delight customers and deliver value. However, competing in a digital age takes a completely different approach.
Criterium Group has considered the changing landscape from a competitive, financial, technological and operational perspective to re-design the traditional banking business model to win in a digital world.

WSO2 Open Banking: Digital Transformation Through PSD2WSO2

The Journey to Digital Transformation with Touch BankBackbase
The presentation of Andrei Kozliar, CEO of Touch Bank. In this webinar, Jouk Pleiter, CEO of Backbase, talks to two of the most innovative banks in Europe – Touch Bank and CheBanca!
Digital transformation is about fundamentally changing how banks attract, interact with and satisfy consumers, and it affects all levels of your organisation. Antonio and Andrei will share real-life examples of digital transformation in our new webinar, which will look at:
what was needed to start their digital transformation journeys
the key elements for success.
Antonio Fratta Pasini is Head of CRM and Omni-channel for CheBanca!, the retail bank of Mediobanca Group, the third largest financial services group in Italy. CheBanca! has always been at the forefront of innovation, from flagship futuristic branches to award-winning banking apps such as WOW!
Andrei Kozliar is CEO of Touch Bank, a neobank created by OTP Bank. Founded in 1949, OTP Bank is one of the largest independent financial service providers in Central and Eastern Europe, serving nine countries. Recognizing that today’s digital-savvy customers and emerging digital natives are going to be the fastest growing customer segment, OTP Bank decided to launch a new, digital- and mobile-only bank under the label Touch Bank.
A Complete Model of the Payment Service BusinessFrank Steeneken
This slide deck provides a complete picture of the underlying skeletal structure that holds every payment service business together while achieving its goals.
The model introduces a comprehensive framework for managing the complexity of the payment service business structure, and a reusable blueprint for visualizing how a payment service business enterprise actually does business. The model’s clearly-defined core-processes and their functions provide a powerful baseline for improving business performance.
By viewing the payment service business as a single system, fully independent of its implementation, the nature of its underlying core processes becomes clear. Then by managing and improving them as parts of a single system, substantial improvements can be made on critical success factors.
Today's customers are fundamentally different from customers of past years as they are harder to acquire, retain, and delight because of the explosion in digital technologies consumers use day to day. New digital experiences are forcing banks to play catch-up and match the innovative and engaging interactions and products — such as mobile payments — that non-banks are offering to those same customers. This IDC research, sponsored by TCS Digital Software & Solutions Group, revealed three key themes for digital transformation in the banking industry.
Going Digital: The Banking Transformation Road MapSemalytix
The leaders in digital banking are more client-centric, tech-savvy, and inclusive—and are fundamentally changing to deliver the best results.
Most banks today want to become digital banking leaders—after all, that's where the customers are. And for much of the past decade as digital banking has taken hold, most leading traditional banks have incorporated strong digital strategies.
So what separates the digital banking leaders from the laggards? A new A.T. Kearney study on digitization, in conjunction with Efma, seeks the answer and finds three main findings: the leaders understand the importance of mobile in a digital strategy, they are developing more agile operating models, and, most notably, they have tackled the need for internal culture shifts (see sidebar: About the Study).
With top-down implementation, these leaders have set their paths toward becoming more client-centric, more tech-savvy, and more inclusive. As the market evolves even more rapidly through the end of the decade, all banks will have to adapt to a disruptive model in people and IT—the two engines of retail banking—and must fundamentally adapt to deliver the best results.
This paper looks at the trends and the path forward.
The Evolving Digital Journey
Most banks began their digital journey years ago and have clear digital strategies, yet even those are facing major changes. In particular, as more customers use their mobile phones and tablets to do their banking, and omnichannel takes hold in financial services, the mobile experience is becoming a crucial aspect of digital strategy that banks must address.
Secondly, to keep up in this fast-changing market, traditional banks will have to adapt their operating models. In particular, changes in IT, new products and services development, and changing expectations for time-to-market will be key factors going forward.
Perhaps the most important step, however, is that banking in the digital age requires a drastic, profound reset of how banking staff reacts to customer needs. This means thinking customer first, rather than by channel; as one panelist puts it, "Banks think in channels, but customers don't." It means being conscious that small digital players can gain market share faster and in a manner that is more disruptive to traditional banks' models. It means understanding that organizational silos pose significant obstacles to creating new solutions for customers. Most importantly, it means looking inward, changing organizational beliefs and habits to facilitate clients and drive digital innovation.
A new spirit of banking—led by top executives—will lead the way to addressing market changes, becoming more agile, and improving openness in day-to-day business.

Building the 10x better bank, by @joukpleiter & @jelmerdejong
Slides of the November 11, 2015 webinar 'Omni-channel banking & the digital transformation roadmap'.
In this webinar, Jouk Pleiter and Jelmer de Jong of Backbase will talk about building the 10-times-better bank.
The financial services market is going through many changes. New challengers have appeared and are looking for a slice of the market. In addition, customers are more demanding and more informed, expecting convenience and simplicity when it comes to financial services, particularly online and via mobile devices. People love digital services such as Netflix, Amazon, and Uber because they’re easy to use and deliver great customer experiences. They deliver 10 times more convenience and better customer experiences than the status quo, and are therefore winning the market. It’s only a matter of time before the 10-times-better bank is founded, a thought that's on the radar of every banker.
In this webinar, we outline the journey of creating the 10-times-better bank, providing a detailed analysis of how banks can begin their digital journey, with a strong focus on five main points:
1) new competitors in banking: the disrupters
2) customer experience: the key ingredients
3) omni-channel and the changing channel mix
4) mobile's impact on online sales and share of wallet
5) regaining control in the era of digitization
Banking Disruption in Financial Services: Threats and OpportunitiesDogTelligent
There are three forces shaping the future of banking. Technology innovation is the first. For most traditional financial institutions -- banks and credit unions -- technology innovation is a weakness; instead, they rely on third-party firms ranging from established core providers to startups to provide them with a mix of products that they repackage and resell to their customers. Demographics is the second force. Millennials now account for 25% of the US population with 80 million and growing. The third force is the emergence of new business models on the one hand driven by Millennial demand and communication preferences, and on the other, enabled by new technologies as they are invented.
The report examines data from multiple sources and suggests potential defenses for institutions to fend off competitive threats from technology, retail, and telecom firms that are gaining traction in the payments and banking arenas.

2021: The second wave of Fintech Disruption: Trends to watch outIndusNetMarketing
2020 has been a global shock for the world but it has also been a reason for digital adoption. The financial sector is evolving with time and 2021 will visualise many new disruptive trends that are going to shape the future of financial services.
The FinTech sector has grown rapidly in last few years and is on track of ever evolving track. Prior to 2008 financial crisis, the traditional banking sector was the only playground available for financial needs. The financial crisis collapsed the traditional banking & financial mechanism and paved the way for more secure and updated financial transaction which led to emergence of FinTech, which has altered the economic viability of traditional banking sector participants to originate loans, translating into contraction of the credit supply for individuals and SMEs.
Today, financial markets & services are flooded with technology driven innovation, whereby new non-depository institutions- referred to as peer-to-peer financing, loan based crowdfunding platform, marketplace lenders (MPL) - providing loans of various types and duration to end users through online and mobile channels. Some of these companies lend from their own corpus/balancesheet, while some serve as brokers between investors and borrowers, commonly referred to as “Platform Lenders”.
Payments has been the frontrunner in the large scale consumer adoption of Fintech in India, aided by the spread of smartphones and mobile internet at affordable price points. Most FinTech players started out by identifying a niche/use case for building a customer base ( e.g. Paytm for online payments, Ola Money for cab payments, Airtel Money for phone bills etc.) and then expanding onto other services.
Indian regulatory authorities including RBI, SEBI & IRDA have adopted an accommodative stance towards an emerging Fintech sector without bringing in prohibitive guidelines to over regulate the sector. Despite catching up with the rapidly evolving eco system, Indian regulators have adopted a consultative approach and have been proactively foreseeing the need for adequate regulations, especially in the areas concerning public funds i.e. peer-to-peer lending, crowd funding and alternative currencies.

Solving Financial Constraints with Innovative Funding SolutionGilbert Tam 譚耀宗
After the credit crunch in 2008, SMEs though they are amounted to the 80-90% of business activites but their access to funding has been greatly impacted by the traditional lenders, banks, that after the 2008 credit cruch are reluctant to maintain such business if no "bricks and mortar" are provided by sellers.
IMAP Fintech Sector Leaders share insights into the global Fintech sector.
They look at the short- and long-term effects of the COVID pandemic and which subsectors stand to lose and who ultimately stands to benefit. Sharing their thoughts on key themes disrupting the sector, including payments, digitalization, lending and mobile, they examine
how these have been impacting M&A activity and valuations.
They provide an overview of the most active players, as well as expectations for this key sector moving forward.
A brief presentation highlighting some key innovations in the finance industry, including payment methods, capital raising, security and financial management.
We look at how these improvements apply to daily life. For instance, digitization has created so many alternative payment methods, capital raising innovations have eliminated the traditional financial intermediaries, while cyber security has led to better regulations aimed at protecting the innocent consumers.
Lastly, each subsection has highlighted potential challenges along the way.

Global supply chains have been steadily growing in complexity for years – spurred by the proliferation of e-commerce and increasing consumer expectations (widely deemed the “Amazon Effect”). More recently, the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated those pre-existing dynamics and further highlighted the failings of a traditional, siloed, supply chain framework, as many companies found themselves underprepared and slow to respond to a shifting market environment. As a result, businesses have been motivated to re-evaluate their current technology and processes and are seeking solutions that emphasize visibility, adaptability, and automation across the supply chain.
At Catalyst Investors, we believe software and tech-enabled services enabling more efficient supply chain management are poised for outsized growth in the coming years. We are excited to meet and partner with growth stage companies that are driving forces behind more efficient supply chains.

Today’s catalysts, which include a macro digital shift, the arrival of 5G, and COVID’s lasting impact on how we live and work, position PropTech for accelerated growth.
In March, we will reach the one-year anniversary of the first COVID lockdowns instituted in the US. Given the milestone, Catalyst Investors assembled this report to reflect upon some of our initial assumptions (https://catalyst.com/research_item/market-opportunities-post-covid-19/) around COVID’s impact on the tech ecosystem. Additionally, as we look towards the end of confinement and return to “normalcy”, we shift our focus to the technology landscape and investment opportunity set on a go forward basis.
Overall, many of our predictions around the future of work and relevant business implications appear to have come to fruition. We’ve seen clear indicators that attitudes are changing around the necessity of business travel and the acceptance of a distributed workforce. Experts estimate that the pandemic has sped up the adoption of digital technologies by several years, leading to a strong and fast-growing opportunity set for tech investors. Also, as the economy begins to reopen, we anticipate a significant amount of recovery opportunities for impacted vertical software players and tech-enabled services.
Evolution of the Software Development Lifecycle and DevOps ToolsCatalyst Investors
The increasing number of DevOps tools coupled with lower barriers to adoption, manifesting themselves through credit card sign-up options for developers and increased interoperability via open APIs, has caused the DevOps software tools market to grow exponentially. There are also a number of favorable trends, many of which Catalyst Investors has observed first-hand through its investments in EDB and Effectual, that are fueling the growth of this market.
The convergence of integrated software, efficient hardware and modern networking infrastructure has created a new technology environment. Industry 4.0 sits at the convergence of these technologies and enables many industries that we actively track. Catalyst Investors’ history in software and TMT is quite relevant to Industry 4.0. We are excited to meet and partner with growth stage companies that are built as Industry 4.0 solutions from the ground up, as well as existing service businesses that can adopt Industry 4.0 technologies as an evolution.
COVID-19 will likely curb future business travel, reduce regulatory barriers for online tools and contribute to a greater appreciation for risk management. It is Catalyst Investors' view that these trends will require significant upgrades to tech infrastructure, including an acceleration of 5G rollouts and cloud transitions. In software, we see meaningful tailwinds in communications software, particularly in telehealth and e-learning. Additionally, Governance, Risk & Compliance software is well positioned for strong growth, most notably in business continuity and 3rd party vendor risk management.
The communications software market is undergoing a dramatic shift from legacy hardware- and network-centric systems to more efficient cloud-based tools that enable businesses to have more meaningful and informed contextual conversations with their customers.
Catalyst has seen this first-hand through its investment in Weave (recently named to the 2019 Forbes Cloud 100). For example, a common phone call between a dentist office using Weave and their patient has been transformed from “while I have you on the phone, is there anyone else in your family that needs an appointment?” to “while I have you on the phone, I see your children haven’t had appointments in over a year – should we get them scheduled next month as well?”
Weave’s solutions are just one example of how contextual communications are having an impact on how businesses communicate internally and with their customers – Catalyst believes we’re in the early days of a generational transformation and is excited to partner with more vertically and functionally focused businesses enabling contextual communications.
At Catalyst, we employ a proactive, research-based approach to investing, targeting sectors experiencing outstanding growth. If you are an owner, operator, or investor in a growth stage company innovating the way businesses communicate either with their customers or internally, we would like to hear from you. Please send inquiries and business plans to kyle@catalyst.com.
Restaurants in 2019 continue to face several challenges, including everything from attracting and retaining customers to hiring and training staff. These challenges, both customer-facing (“Front of House”) and operations-focused (“Back of House”), keep restaurant profit margins low at 6% and contribute to the industry’s high failure rate. Increasingly, restaurants are more attune to these pain points and seek out restaurant-focused software and tech-enabled outsourcing solutions to increase sales volumes and reduce costs. As a result, the restaurant tech stack continues to evolve, providing restaurants with more options than ever to help them improve and grow their businesses.
Catalyst has a wealth of experience backing vertical-specific businesses, including one currently in the Restaurant Tech space (ChowNow). We believe restaurants will continue to actively seek out best in-class restaurant-specific solutions, and are eager to partner with more of these businesses seeking growth equity capital.

Software companies have been moving into the payments space over the last few years in a major way. A number of vertical software companies have embedded payments functionality into their solutions – creating a better experience for end-users, businesses and their customers – and are capturing economics in the process. Other software companies have built payments solutions addressing vertical specific pain points. In doing so, they have been able to take market share from generic horizontal providers and open greenfield opportunities.
Catalyst has a wealth of experience backing businesses in this space (MindBody, ChowNow, Weave, and WeddingWire, among others). We believe we will see this trend continue to accelerate for years to come and are eager to partner with more of these businesses seeking growth equity capital.
At Catalyst, we employ a proactive, research-based approach to investing, targeting sectors experiencing outstanding growth. If you are an owner, operator or investor in a growth stage Vertical Payments Software company, we would like to hear from you.

Despite a recent uptick in private financing and M&A activity, the construction industry remains a laggard in terms of technology adoption. A number of platforms and point solutions have emerged and are bringing traditionally paper-based processes online, but much innovation remains to come. Many stakeholders stand to benefit from the digitization of construction workflows, including contractors, designers, suppliers and other service organizations. As these transformations occur, truly vertically integrated platforms will emerge. Every step in the value chain from ideation to design to construction will benefit and be capable of sharing information to reduce costs and expedite build timelines. Accounting / ERP systems, BIM platforms, project management suites and supply chain providers are a few of the vendors driving change within the industry by digitizing documentation, communication, imaging and data synchronization. Catalyst recently partnered with eSUB and is excited to participate in the next phase of industry innovation.

The automotive industry stands at an inflection point. Decades of progress across safety, connectivity and performance have led to a drastic change in the vehicles on the road and for sale today. In addition, several colossal technology-driven changes are on the near horizon, which will in turn lead to even more drastic changes for the industry.
As these transformations occur, the automotive industry is leaning on Automotive Technology (“Auto Tech”) businesses for help. Automotive businesses throughout the supply chain are improving themselves by injecting digitization, intelligence and automation into existing processes. Auto Tech companies enable auto businesses to do so by providing software, data & analytics and outsourcing solutions. New businesses are emerging, both to take market share from incumbents through technology-driven processes as well as leveraging emerging technology to create new markets (e.g. Uber & Lyft using ubiquitous wireless broadband connectivity and smartphone adoption to create the ride-hailing industry). Catalyst is looking to partner with exciting businesses at the heart of the automotive industry transformation. Catalyst is also interested in technology businesses serving verticals adjacent to automotive including trucks & trailers, power sports, recreational vehicles and boats.
In a day and age of rapid technological innovation, the public has come to demand an incredibly high level of technical sophistication from all aspects of their lives. Where the commercial sector has accelerated to meet this demand, the public sector has historically been resistant to change. The Government Technology (“GovTech”) sector arose in response to public demand for more efficient, affordable, and secure government processes from a segment plagued by antiquated systems and outdated procedures. Only recently have government entities begun leveraging innovative and agile solutions to meet increasing operational demands and produce more citizen value while remaining adherent to stringent budgets. This digital transformation has been catalyzed by federal programs and regulations, which are accelerating tech adoption by increasing capital investment and streamlining procurement processes. To capitalize on this trend, Catalyst is exploring GovTech businesses seeking to exploit the recent digital transformation of the public sector across North America and seize market share in a fragmented market.
SaaS adoption has proliferated across nearly every industry vertical and business function to the point where it is now nearly ubiquitous throughout the economy. This has created multiple market opportunities for businesses utilizing an “API-first” strategy, whereby they offer new products or services via API that complement existing SaaS applications or they use API technology to break down data silos and connect what would otherwise be disparate data sets. A handful of first-movers have capitalized on a subset of these opportunities in both products & services (e.g., Twilio in voice & text, Stripe in payments) and data aggregation (e.g., MuleSoft for enterprises, Plaid for FinTech / financial institutions). We believe this dynamic is still in its early days and that there will be many future opportunities for growth investors with strong SaaS experience to partner with these businesses.
To capitalize on this trend, Catalyst is exploring businesses participating in the “API Economy”, which we define as companies doing any of the following:
1. Pursuing an “API-first” product or go-to-market strategy (e.g., Twilio, Stripe, Algolia, MapBox)
2. Utilizing APIs to connect data silos (e.g., MuleSoft, Plaid, Zapier, Segment, Redox, Trulioo)
3. Enabling the development and maintenance of APIs (e.g., Apigee, Kong, SmartBear)
At Catalyst, we employ a proactive, research-based approach to investing, targeting sectors experiencing outstanding growth. If you are an owner, operator, or investor of a growth stage company participating in the API Economy, we would like to hear from you. Please send inquiries and business plans to grady@catalyst.com.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
