2017 Dec. 20 & 21 - encognize joins the 1st japan REG/SUM

a 2-day event dedicated to REGtech hosted by Nikkei

We were honoured and humbled to contribute to the delivery of the first 2-day event dedicated to RegTech across industries in Japan, the REG/SUM event hosted by Nikkei on December 20 and 21.

encognize has proudly contributed to the delivery of the 4 following activities for the Japan REG/SUM 2017 edition.

​2017 December 20,  11:10am - 11:55am JST
Moderation of the panel discussion: "Regulation & RegTech Inside and Outside of Finance: The Startup Perspective"
We definitely learned a lot discussing with Emotics Ray Horan (RegTech), Binded Nathan Lands (LegalTech), Infostellar Naomi Kurahara (SpaceTech), Shift Payments Meg Nakamura (FinTech) and WeWork Christopher Hill about their experience as entrepreneurs and startups community supporter! Building early channels with government agencies and regulatory bodies and surrounding you with knowledgeable people ready to support your initiatives were 2 of the conclusion remarks brought by the panellists.

​Judge panel of startup Pitch Run Part I
​Congratulations to HEXANIKA Yogesh Pandit, Crowd Realty Takeshi Kito and LegSea for the award at REG/SUM Japan! Joining the judge panel for the 12 startups aligned for the 3-minute Pitch Run 1 has definitely been an intense experience for us as well. In any case, it has been a tough contest with a lot of innovative solutions presented there! One recommendation for startups targeting similar elevator pitch contests: the clarity of your message (during the 3-minute pitch as well as during the 3-minute Q&A) is surely as important as your overall solution to help score points! Make sure to appropriately prepare and rehearse...

Workshop facilitation: Accelerating the adoption of innovative RegTech solutions by large financial institutions
​The workshop drew attendees from diverse backgrounds and profiles: Financial Services Industry, Consulting firms and RegTech entrepreneurs. Thanks to a fictional case study putting the RegTech entrepreneur view in perspective with the Financial Institution side, the audience openly and actively shared their ideas on how to solve the engagement equation between both parties.
