WealthTech Matters

walthtech-matters-page-image.jpg

Networking with your peers Building new partnerships to drive your business forwards

Owen James and The Wealth Mosaic have collaborated to create a series of triannual events for key decision makers from the Private Wealth industry.

Technology is core to the future wealth management model but, in an increasingly specialist technology environment, wealth managers must engage with a deeper knowledge and understanding of what technology is available and can deliver across the three main areas of their business; their clients, their advisers and staff and their business. 

WealthTech Matters will focus on three themes and will discover and discuss technology solutions that solve key challenges facing their business. The year will then conclude with Owen James' flagship event Meeting of Minds - Technology in Financial Services.

Who Will Be in the Room?..

Each event will bring together COOs, CTOs, CIOs and their teams from the top Wealth Managers, Private Banks, DFMs, Advisers and MFOs.

THEMES:

The Client - 10/03/2022
How you find and engage prospects, onboard, manage and service clients efficiently and profitably is changing. Learn what technology tools are doing in these areas.

The Adviser - 14/06/2022 
A wide range of technology now exists to increase the efficiency, speed and effectiveness of your employees. Learn what technology tools can do for your employees.

The Business - 10/11/2022
Wealth Management firms are challenged by multiple themes but also have significant opportunities available to them. Learn what role technology has to play here.

If you would like to find out more about these events, do please call John Hall on 01483 861334 or email him at johnhall@owenjamesgroup.com.
