The Autonomous Bank: A Profitability & Resilience Summit
09-10 JUNE 2026
London | Venue-TBA
About the event
This is not a conference. It’s an executive summit designed to drive tangible outcomes and strategic decisions for banking leaders. While other events focus on the broad, often-failing narratives of digital transformation, The Autonomous Bank provides a definitive playbook for achieving quantifiable profitability and resilience through agentic AI, quantum computing, and embedded finance. With a meticulously curated, no-noise format, this is where C-suite executives go to solve problems, not just hear about them.
What’s in it for me?
Decisions, not footfall
Chatham House Rule
All keynote sessions and C-suite roundtables will operate under the Chatham House Rule, ensuring complete confidentiality. This creates a safe space for candid, off-the-record discussions, allowing you to speak freely without fearing public attribution or misrepresentation of your organization’s position.
Cohesive agenda
Our agenda is a single, interconnected narrative that tells the story of moving from reactive to autonomous banking. Each keynote builds on the last, ensuring that you leave with a comprehensive, holistic understanding and a clear roadmap for execution.
Curated meetings
We eliminate the random, inefficient networking of traditional conferences. All attendees are pre-vetted, and we facilitate exclusive, one-on-one meetings based on your strategic needs, ensuring every connection is meaningful and productive.
No noise
We eliminate distractions. This is a focused, sponsor-free environment where the content is the primary driver. All non-essential sales pitches are removed, ensuring that every session is concentrated on strategic insights and actionable intelligence.
Outcome driven
Our goal is not for you to simply attend; it’s for you to leave with a decision. Each session culminates in an immediate next-steps discussion, facilitated by experts, to help you translate insights into concrete action plans.
