Vienna, May 27, 2026 – Digitalisation is changing how financial services are developed, offered and experienced. For banks and financial service providers, this opens up concrete opportunities: processes become leaner, decisions faster, and offerings can be more precisely tailored to the actual needs of customers. Companies that actively shape this transformation can not only work more efficiently – they also build stronger, more lasting relationships with their customers. Digitalisation is therefore not purely a technical matter, but a strategic lever for greater market relevance.
P19 embraces these developments and sees itself as a platform for networking, knowledge transfer and discussion around future technologies in the European payment and financial ecosystem. The goal is to bring together experts, companies, media and decision-makers, and to provide clear, practice-oriented context for technological developments.

The focus areas below represent key topics for which P19 provides access to a pan-European network of experts and facilitates their targeted engagement for media inquiries, interviews and panels:

“Digitalisation in the financial sector succeeds when it not only simplifies internal processes, but also reaches customers – as a better experience, a clearer offering, greater reliability. That is exactly the kind of exchange we want to foster at P19”, says Birgit Kraft-Kinz, Initiator of P19.
