One more thing – financial services, tech & human intersection

  • 16th January 2023

In this series, One more thing, Theodora (Theo) Lau, a prominent speaker on all things fintech and innovation, writes about the intersection of financial services, technology, and the human element.

Theo LauShe discusses how fintech can promote change and innovation to create a more fair and inclusive system globally and shape a better future for all humankind.

Financial services can play a more crucial role in lifting people out of poverty and help break the cycle of inequality, and with focus and intention, more inclusive economic growth can finally be within reach.

Theo is the founder of Unconventional Ventures, a public speaker, and an advisor with extensive experience in tech and start-up ecosystems. She is the co-author of Beyond Good, and host of One Vision, a podcast on fintech and innovation.

Connect with Theo on LinkedIn, Twitter @psb_dc, and Mastodon @[email protected].

You’ve checked the DEI box. Now what?

To truly transform is to have DEI values infused in the DNA of your company.

On the evolution of work

The future of work is human — and tech can help create new economic opportunities for more people.

The trust that binds us

What will become of the trust that binds us when people misplace their faith in faceless algorithms?

The future of work is a story of data and empathy

The future is not about using technology to displace humans, but leveraging technology to be more human.

A tale of two worlds

We have a responsibility as an industry to do more to improve financial security and create a more equal society.

ChatGPT and generative AI – what does banking have to do with it?

Ready or not, the generative AI genie is out of the bottle and there is no going back.

Diversity of socks is our future

Awareness does not always translate into action, unfortunately. It’s intention that we need.

Reasons to be hopeful for 2023

Perhaps, the universe has a plan hiding in plain sight. The glimmers of hope that are just around the corner...

Being an entrepreneur: from A to Z

It’s easy to start a company, but it’s much harder to sustain it.

Sibos 2022: Food, shelter, water – what does banking have to do with it?

Banks can play a crucial role in lifting people out of poverty.

Video: Theo Lau at Finovate Europe 2022 – the future of AI in finance

FinTech Futures chats with Theo Lau about the use of AI in finance and future tech trends.

Digital makes the world go round: a reflection

We have the tools and resources to do more, and to do better, but more action is needed.

A jar of hope

We might be from different backgrounds, but we are all part of the universe.

It’s time to put our heart back into our ecosystem – and build what matters

Access to financial services is a crucial tool to help our most marginalised citizens escape poverty.

Just do it?

How can we, as an industry, be more empathetic and create solutions that matter?

My dollars matter

Branch closures hurt not only consumers, but also small businesses and their local communities.

A voyage of optimism from the city of angels to mountains of clouds

Entrepreneurs, local governments and socially minded enterprises spark innovation in their communities.

Is voice the next UI?

Theodora Lau discusses what the future might look like for fintech and brands.

Celebrating Finovate’s #WomeninFinTech

For fintech to be for everyone, it needs to be from everyone.

The empathy deficit

As the cost of living continues to rise, what will banks do? What should they do?

The forgotten faces of diversity: the invisibles

To be successful, diversity and inclusion must start from within – and it must be built into the culture.

The forgotten generation: driving digital adoption with older customers

Everyone - regardless of their age, would like a good user experience.

True diversity or tokenism

It is not only time for us to say: ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. It is now time for us to hold ourselves accountable.

We were all beginners once

Be intentional in finding new voices. And be intentional in elevating them.

What the Fintech? Episode 10 | Diversity & inclusion: AI bias

Theodora Lau, founder of Unconventional Ventures provides her take on artificial intelligence.
