On June 13, 2025, Rotunda of PKO Bank Polski became the stage for an inspiring Demo Day, bringing together top representatives from the financial and technology sectors, innovation leaders, and high-potential startups from the fintech, insurtech, and AI space.
The event opened with a panel discussion on “Cybersecurity in the Age of AI,” moderated by Robert Pająk of Microsoft. Industry experts from Mastercard, Accenture, CyComSec, and NOTO – 360 Fraud discussed critical issues around data security, the responsible use of AI, and compliance challenges in a rapidly evolving technological landscape.
The heart of the day was a dynamic series of startup presentations. Sixteen startups pitched their innovative solutions in four rounds, each featuring a rotating panel of jurors from leading banks, technology companies, and investors. Each startup had four minutes to present their idea, followed by two minutes of live Q&A.
The audience was introduced to a wide spectrum of cutting-edge solutions — from fraud detection tools and customer service automation to advanced analytics platforms and AI-powered innovations.
The event concluded with the recognition of a few standout startups, followed by a lively networking session that provided space for meaningful conversations, knowledge sharing, and the exploration of future collaborations.
We thank all the participants for their energy, insight, and commitment to shaping the future of finance and technology in Central and Eastern Europe!
