As fintechs and financial institutions navigate an increasingly competitive and fragmented market, leveraging emerging technologies is critical to unlocking new growth opportunities. In this Keynote Interview, Tala CEO & Founder Shivani Siroya will share how AI, machine learning, and blockchain are reshaping financial access for the global majority—the 4 billion people traditionally excluded from mainstream financial systems. Through real-world insights spanning four countries and three continents, Shivani will discuss how Tala is redefining creditworthiness using LLMs and proprietary data, enabling scalable, inclusive, and efficient financial solutions. Attendees will gain strategies for entering new markets, managing complex regulatory environments, and differentiating through embedded finance and alternative data models. Join this Keynote Interview to explore how fintechs can strategically distribute financial products, expand market reach, and drive sustainable global growth in an era where accessibility and scalability are key competitive advantages.
