FINANCIAL SERVICES
NFT, WEB3 and the Metaverse
INFORMATIVE. INTERACTIVE. INVALUABLE.

Zoom | Friday, October 13, 2023 | 11:00AM-12:00PM ET


Join Proofpoint Resident CISO, Financial Services, John Checco, and your fellow CISOs for an interactive conversation that explores the landscape of digital assets and emerging technologies.

With the advent of ChatGPT, OpenAI, and LLMs, has the financial services industry lost interest in NFTs, WEB3, and the Metaverse? Actually, the opposite is true.

In this session, we’ll discuss:

  • How cryptocurrency exchanges such as Coinbase, and payment platforms such as PayPal, are embracing WEB3 as the communication platform of the future
  • How auction houses are parlaying their profits from NFTs with NFT-centric marketplaces like OpenSea
  • How the Metaverses remains a disruptive force in the financial digitalization realm with companies like Netmarble
