In this episode Pål Krogdahl and Ville Sointu talked to Dr. Keir Finlow-Bates, who is a researcher, author and a real life inventor with a portfolio of patents to his name.

The lineup for this one was two thirds Brits living in Finland, which obviously meant we got to talk about the weather a lot but also covered everything from Bitcoin to Ethereum to DeFI and even a bit about central bank digital currencies.

In this special episode of Fintech Daydreaming we were recording with a live audience for the very first time in our show's short history. To add to the excitement our fantastic guest Johanna Lybeck from Nordea gave us an economist perspective into central bank digital currencies and more.

Did our hosts, Pål Krogdahl and Ville Sointu make it out of the live recording without major injuries? Did the audience in virtual attendance react to the attempted abysmal banking humor? All this and more in this week's episode.

We are back with episode six of season two of Fintech Daydreaming!

For this chapter in the Fintech Daydreaming saga Pål Krogdahl and Ville Sointu were joined by Rasmus Thomsen from Flowtale, a Danish tech startup focusing on data insights and predictive analytics.

Could we have created an algorithm to predict all the fun things we learned from Rasmus? Probably not. At least not the parts related to controlled detonation of IoT devices. If that didn't make any sense to you at all there's really no option but to listen to this week's episode 💥

Guest:

Do you have a great banking related joke to share? ping us on LinkedIn or Twitter with the joke and we will read it out in a future episode and give you a shout out at the same time...

Episode five of season two is here and we continue our epic streak of C-level executives visiting the show.

Our guest this time is Howard Boville who is currently the Senior Vice President of Hybrid Cloud at IBM and the former CTO at Bank of America where he was among many other things overseeing their transition to a modern cloud infrastructure.

Cloud puns, police sirens (!) and heavy hitting bank IT strategy commentary all wrapped up in a podcast episode hosted as usual by Pål Krogdahl and Ville Sointu - there’s really no reason not to listen in this week!

An old friend of both Pål Krogdahl and Ville Sointu popped in to have a chat about all things bank digitalization as the former CDO of Nordea and current Chief Transformation Office of Sohar International Ewan MacLeod visited us and shared the story of how he ended up in sunny beaches of Oman.

Tune in to hear Ewan talk about how bank digitalization works in practice and whether or not C-level digital leaders regularly listen to Fintech Daydreaming.

Guest:

Welcome to season 2, episode 3 of Fintech Daydreaming!

In this episode Pål Krogdahl and Ville Sointu had the privilege to talk to Elina Mattila, who is the executive director of Mobey Forum - a non-profit organization that has been part of setting the stage for digital financial services all the way since year 2000.
