Fintech Daydreaming

Our guest in this second to last episode of Fintech Daydreaming for season three, is no other than progressive rock band guitarist, songwriter, author, stand-up comedian and 'reluctant' futurist Mark Stevenson. He has his own wikipedia page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Stevenson). Because of course he does. We kick this episode off with the question -  what do we think the future holds for the banking industry seen from an environmental and sustainability perspective when we look at the continued use of emerging technologies to solve some of the pressing issues we have globally? Tune in to hear whether or not Pål manages to introduce Mark successfully and later learn - among many other things - about data centers and mining that consume carbon dioxide.
