Come February 27, Four Seasons Hotel in Bahrain Bay will be teeming with delegates and visitors representing the banking and regulation sectors, key government offices, and private sector entities. They will be there to attend the OpenX 2020 conference hosted by Bahrain FinTech Bay, the first-of-its-kind FinTech hub in MENA.
The timing of the open banking conference is from 08:00 to 15:30 hours and it will include more than 25 speakers shedding their insights into key issues on topics such as banking and financial regulations, APIs and data protection, monetization of open banking, and so on.
