On 4 April 2019, Deloitte Luxembourg organised its ninth edition of the annual Horizon Conference at the Philharmonie Luxembourg.

The event gathered 250 industry professionals from across the globe to discover what lies ahead for the financial sector as it faces, with some uncertainty, the evolving financial industry landscape. The conference's objective was to unearth what the future has in store for professionals as they navigate their way through this new territory. 

The Philharmonie opened the floor to a number of speakers and experts in their field as they had the opportunity to address concerns that audience members encountered on their disruptive journey. The event carried a clear message: it is time to embrace change and break with tradition. Professionals should be comfortable with the idea of disruption, which often goes hand-in-hand with stepping outside of the norm and pushing the boundaries to reveal a new era of opportunity.

Pascal Martino, Banking Leader and Deloitte Digital Leader in Luxembourg, commented: "The Horizon Conference offers its audience the chance to break the cycle of tradition. By opening up the conversation to less conventional channels, the event encourages professionals to look outside their standard parameters."

The next edition of the Horizon Conference will indeed break with tradition and extend the conference to a full day event, opening up to the next generation of leaders and innovators.
