## What Jamie wrote

I find technology adoption in financial services to be this odd mix. Financial services, particularly trading, was incredibly aggressive to adopt technology because it literally made them more money. Other areas, particularly in banking, are very outdated. It is actually less of an argument about adoption, and more about how do you continuously reinvent and change. In many ways financial services is the most dated in part because they were the first to adopt and the only thing harder than creating new services, is large scale change to existing ones!
