About this Event
Some of the most valuable insight in financial services emerges when organisations take time to explore complex challenges together openly, rigorously, and from multiple perspectives.
This event showcases the Future Finance Collaborative Challenge Programme, an established model that brings industry participants and academic experts into structured collaboration around shared questions facing the sector.
Join peers from across the industry to see how this collaborative, evidence-led approach works in practice, the outcomes it delivers, and how it could support the challenges your organisation is currently navigating.
What to Expect
A curated showcase of collaboration in action, designed to demonstrate:
- How shared challenges are framed and explored collaboratively
- How academic insight and industry experience strengthen each other
Across four Collaborative Challenge showcases, you’ll hear directly from industry participants and academic leads as they reflect on:

- What insights emerged through collaboration
You’ll also gain a clear understanding of the Collaborative Challenge methodology, including how organisations participate and where it adds the most value.
