Beyond the Hype: Which Banking Technologies Will Actually Deliver ROI in 2027?

Wednesday, October 14, 2026
12:00 PM CT
30 minutes | Free to Attend

The CIO.
The fintech strategist.
The AI practitioner.
Where would each put the next technology dollar?

Technology budgets are under pressure to produce results. AI is drawing attention and investment, but banking leaders still have to decide what earns more funding, what needs a closer look, and what can wait.

Join this FREE Converge Executive Exchange webinar for a candid conversation built around three questions:

1. Where are financial institutions seeing measurable technology ROI today?

2. Where is AI producing real results, and where is the hype still ahead of reality?

3. If you had incremental technology budget for 2027, where would you invest more, and where would you invest less?

Expect 20 minutes of moderated discussion, followed by 10 minutes for your questions. The panelists will bring different perspectives to the same investment decisions, and the moderator will press on the places where their answers diverge.

What has earned it?

Modernize, Integrate or Leave It Alone? The Technology Decisions Banks Are Making for 2027

Tuesday, October 27, 2026
12:00 PM CT
30 minutes | Free to Attend

How do you know which decision is the right one?

As banks plan for 2027, technology leaders have to determine where modernization will create enough value to justify the cost and disruption, where integration can extend the life of existing technology, and where the smartest decision may be to leave something alone.

Join this FREE Converge Executive Exchange webinar for a candid conversation built around three questions.

1. Modernize or Maintain?

2. Integrate or Replace?

3. When to Move

Expect 20 minutes of moderated discussion, followed by 10 minutes for your questions.

12:00 PM Central Time | 30 minutes | Free virtual event

THE QUESTION

Does it actually need to change?

New technology isn't automatically better technology. Every modernization decision comes with a tradeoff: cost, implementation time, integration complexity, operational disruption and the opportunity cost of putting resources here instead of somewhere else. Hear how banking technology leaders are deciding which systems deserve investment—and which ones don't.

THE CONVERSATION

Three questions. No slide decks.

MODERNIZE OR MAINTAIN?

Separate the technology creating real constraints from the technology that's simply been around a while.

INTEGRATE OR REPLACE?

Explore when connecting around existing technology can deliver what the bank needs and when another integration just adds complexity.

WHEN TO MOVE?

Look at the signals that tell leaders it's time to stop working around a system and start changing it.

THE PERSPECTIVES

Meet the leaders making these decisions

Hear directly from banking technology leaders responsible for balancing modernization, integration, risk, resources and business priorities. No prepared presentations. No slide decks. Just different perspectives on the technology decisions banks are making for 2027.
