Details of the Workshop

The digital transformation of organizations is imperative, and banks are no exception to this drive towards introducing new capacities. However, the infrastructural challenges characteristic of developing countries can pose significant obstacles to rural banking, particularly when value propositions are unfamiliar and trust is yet to be established.

This workshop, titled “Technological Transitions and Social Innovations in Digital Banking,” will delve into the key challenges facing the diffusion of digital banking. It will specifically focus on rural and women’s banking practices and examine cultural, economic, and technological barriers to electronic banking (e-banking). Discussions will appraise the micro, meso, and macro issues disrupting traditional means of accessing banking services.

By addressing these challenges, the workshop aims to provide insights into creating efficient access to e-banking in India, reducing social inequities, and empowering women. Moreover, it will explore how digital transformation in banking can bring forth previously unrealized value propositions among rural households

Objectives of the Workshop

  • To identify and address the challenges in the adoption and diffusion of digital banking technologies.
  • To explore innovative practices in rural and women’s banking.
  • To evaluate the impact of cultural, economic, and technological barriers on e-banking.
