In this session from MWC 2026, Melissa Wong, bolttech Group Chief Product Officer, joined industry leaders to explore how AI is moving from experimentation to real‑world deployment across fintech.
However, as Melissa highlighted during the discussion, greater connectivity also means risk is becoming more personal.
The devices and platforms that power everyday commerce increasingly expose consumers and families to cyber and privacy threats, widening the protection gap.
The panel explored how AI‑enabled, embedded protection can be delivered within trusted journeys – particularly across telco and retail ecosystems – helping to lower barriers while maintaining responsibility and trust.
The takeaway: AI is no longer experimental. The leaders who stand out will be those who use it not just to optimise performance, but to protect customers in a more connected world.
