As a futurist, he visualised how four major trends &#8211; Artificial Intelligence, Voice Based Artificial intelligence, Smart Glasses and Machine Learning &#8211; are changing the ecosystem dynamics and how these will need to be embedded in customer experience journeys across industries like banking, telecom and retail.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAccess to credit is not the same as needing a credit card,\u201d Brett said. \u201cIt\u2019s about creating an all new credit experience, where banks can predict and assist your daily life credit requirements without a credit card and how open banking can tie all this data together for the banks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nanda Kumar, CEO of SunTec, talked about the ever-pervasive effects of Industry 4.0. He stressed the need for organisations to understand and embrace the \u2018basic human-needs\u2019 driven approach if they want to succeed in today\u2019s digital world.<\/p>\n<p>The second day opened to an eagerly awaited session by Jost Hopperman, Vice President, Forrester Research on \u2018The New High Ground &#8211; The Digital Core\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>The key takeaway from the event was the growing need for organisations to focus on the customer experience part of their Digital Transformation programmes.<\/p>\n<p>Replacing the core is not a viable option for most banks and this is a big hurdle for modernisation projects \u2013 but not anymore.<\/p>\n<p><em>The SunTec product session demonstrated how banks can adopt a simple approach of hollowing the core and separating the customer engagement layer to leap-frog the customer experience ladder.<\/em> This simple yet highly effective strategy enables banks of all types, to exponentially increase their customer experience orchestration capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>Amit Dua, President, SunTec, said: \u201cVia Confluence, our goal is to provide a meaningful platform for industry thought leaders to come together and deliberate upon the state of Digital Transformation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe response has been extremely positive with generous appreciation for the high-quality content.
