Conister Bank’s Chief Operating Officer and Head of UK Branch, Haseeb Qureshi, attended the prominent FinovateEurope 2025 event in London this week, exploring cutting-edge innovations shaping the financial technology sector.
The prestigious event gathered over 1,000 senior professionals from across the industry, including more than 600 delegates representing leading banks and financial institutions.
FinovateEurope is recognised as a significant platform for fintech innovation, showcasing rapid-fire, seven-minute demonstrations from over 30 pioneering companies. This year’s presentations highlighted groundbreaking technologies in artificial intelligence, regulatory compliance enhancements, and automated solutions for Know Your Business (KYB) processes.
A notable theme at FinovateEurope was the advancement of Payment and AI technologies, designed to automate the volume and speed of financial transactions and reduce the need for manual intervention, substantially increasing operational efficiency, accessibility and accuracy. This focus aligns closely with Conister Bank’s strategic direction, including the recent launch of its fully digitalised deposit system, which has significantly improved the banking experience for its UK customers.
Reflecting on his attendance, Haseeb Qureshi commented: “Attending FinovateEurope provided us with a clear view of the exciting direction fintech is heading. The innovations showcased are essential for driving operational efficiency and enhancing customer service, both of which are core to Conister Bank’s ongoing strategy.”
