"I think that the conference had good value but the organisation was not the best. I joined to network and the clarity on how to do it and the way of trying to network was not the best one. "

The quality of the speakers and the subjects addressed, I thought that there were several excellent ideas discussed.

I attended some sessions, moderated a panel and took part in the networking
What did you like best about the event?
I liked the clarity and variety of the sessions.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
The networking was a challenge. Predominantly I would have time before the event to plan for the networking element - set up meetings etc. There seemed to be the presumption that the entire week was likely to be held in the calendar by attendees but in realty individuals were still managing day jobs and family life which made the last minute networking planning very difficult to manage. Might have been easier to open up the networking a week earlier for example to give people time to set things up.

Good experience overall. Pretty well organized, though somewhat dependent on the moderator to kickstart the process of collecting topics
What did you like best about the event?
Good promotion cadence and strong quality of speakers
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
Drive more attendance and slightly less email cadence (UK Fintech Week had a ton of emails)

What did you like best about the event?
The quality of the speakers and the subjects addressed, I thought that there were several excellent ideas discussed.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
Organisation and communication, the agenda was not entirely clear and I was not happy with the networking capabilities. I have joined other (free) events that had a much better set up for networking and booking meetings.

Group discussions of current topics such as the Kalifa review and the role of the UK in global FinTech.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
I could have done with some help with planning my agenda and calendar invites. This is how the AWS re:Invent is organised and means that I can plan my week a month in advance to avoid conflicts with work, etc.
