E2 will focus on three themes: FinTech, Digital Banking and Start Ups. On this regard, the event will gather over 200 delegates from the technology, finance, entrepreneurial, and banking space to spur discussions on how the Middle East can keep up with the global trends and thus create new digital and tech startups in Bahrain whilst attracting investments for the development of the economy.

In addition to this, Innovate Finance – an association representing UK’s global FinTech community – will join in as an Associate Partner to the conference. Innovate Finance will contribute to the conference through a riveting speech by their CEO, Lawrence Wintermeyer on the trajectory of the FinTech industry within a global standpoint.

E2 will feature discussions on topics relevant to the current market scenario including sessions related to the FinTech Revolution, Digital Banking, the Rise of Robo-advisors, Blockchain and Crypto-currencies and much more.
