Event Overview

CTO Craft Con: The Finance Edition brings together CTOs, VPs of Engineering, Technical Directors and founders from across financial services. Expect candid keynotes, real-world case studies, and practical frameworks you can apply the next day.

Payments & fintech infrastructure

Across fintech, banking, payments, and insurance, technology leaders face high-stakes challenges — from regulation and risk to platform modernization and AI adoption.

On November 18th, our Chief Technical Officer, Lucas Hendrich, will lead a fireside chat — “Tasks, Log Entries, and Alerts: Rethinking How Teams Communicate.”

Learn how Forte Group rebuilt their system around three simple ideas: alerts for urgent issues, log entries for shared knowledge, and tasks for accountable work. Discover what changed once every message had a clear purpose, from faster decision-making to smoother collaboration across time zones. See how this structure opened the door to intelligent automation, helping AI tools understand intent and take action without creating chaos.

Join us for two days of pragmatic talks, hands-on sessions, and curated networking designed specifically for financial services.
