Octon International CEO Shows How Banks Can Stay Ahead in the AI Race

Taipei, Taiwan - At The 15th Financial CIO Forum, Dr. Charles Chan, CEO of Octon International and Associate Professor of AI Studies at National Taiwan Normal University, presented a game-changing AI strategy that helps financial institutions avoid costly technology traps while staying competitive.

Speaking to Taiwan's top financial technology leaders, Dr. Chan addressed a critical challenge: How can banks adopt AI without getting stuck with expensive, outdated systems?

Four critical AI implementation challenges facing every financial institution. Octon International delivers future-proof solutions that address each obstacles.

Financial companies investing in AI today encounter four major obstacles:

  • Technology Lock-In: Heavy investments become worthless when better AI emerges months later.

  • Compliance Gaps: Regulators demand transparency that many AI systems can't provide.

  • Extended Timelines: Traditional AI projects take 6-12 months to deploy, delaying real value.

  • Repeated Costs: New technology means starting over from scratch, repeatedly.

Octon International's three-pillar AI approach delivers immediate value while protecting long-term investments. Flexible solutions that grow with you.
