Blockchain, machine learning, big data, artificial intelligence, and other innovations in fintech are revolutionizing the finance industry—and creating new challenges for both startups and incumbent firms that are competing for market share. To succeed in this environment, startups must build, fund, and grow an innovative operation that can outperform larger companies, while incumbent firms must rethink their offerings and digital capabilities to safeguard against disruption. Do you want to understand how neobanks such as Chime or SoFi have taken large banks by surprise? Are you interested in analyzing how new infrastructure players like Plaid and Stripe are changing financial services? Do you wonder how Alibaba’s subsidiary Ant Group became a financial behemoth? Do you expect your business to be affected by the "platform-ification" of financial services? Are you worried about missing out on the blockchain and crypto wave of innovations after Coinbase's IPO? In this program, you will explore best practices for managing these issues, consider the latest breakthroughs in fintech, and establish a game plan for your company—whether you're driving or defending against disruption—always using real world cases from the most interesting companies in the fintech space.
