Sven Bossu heads Sibos, undertaking the responsibility of organizing the highly successful financial services mega-event. He speaks to Banking Frontiers at the recently concluded Sibos 2016 at Geneva on what goes in making the event:
Babu Nair: How was Sibos 2016 in qualitative and quantitative terms? How did it compare with the previous year?
Sven Bossu: In terms of quantity I will say Sibos 2016 was the second biggest in terms of number of delegates (with over 8300 registered delegates) and the absolute No 1 in terms of number of exhibitors (201). Quality wise, the level of speakers and content brought to the community was extremely high with speakers as the CEO of IBM, CEO of UBS, thought leaders like Marco Gercke, director, Cybercrime Research Institute, etc giving their views. And from an operational point of view, everything went flawless. A special mention should go to the venue catering, which was simply outstanding.
What are some of the unimaginable things that happened?
In total, we had 249 lorries of material. We served 2000 lunches per day, we had over 7600 devices connected to wi-fi at the same time, we used 8 km of black drape, we managed to get over 5000 delegates in the venue in less than 2 hours on the first day.
Can you describe the intellectual and operational preparation that precedes Sibos every year?
