Paul has been designing and delivering product strategy for digital business for the last 20 years. An early convert to the power of the internet, and then to the emerging software-as-a-service transformation, he is valued for his ability to turn evolving market and technology trends into defined value propositions that have real tangible meaning to the end user or customer. Over the past 12 years he has worked in marketing, innovation and product roles with the current members of the Webio executive team.

Dan has over 15 years' experience in data science and ML across the full spectrum of use cases in the customer lifecycle, in particular advanced credit risk analytics. He is passionate about de-buking the myths of ML unfairness and bias in the credit risk industry. Another area of his expertise and interest is the use of loyalty data to deliver better and fairer customer outcomes. His two papers at the 2021 Credit Scoring conference talked to the transformational value (and fairness) of ML in credit risk assessment and how to widen access to fair credit through the use of loyalty data.

I’m Cormac O'Neill, CEO and Co-Founder of Webio, my fourth start-up and by far and away the most exciting. I’ve worked in many sectors over the past 20+ years including telecommunications, retail, financial services, and travel gaining priceless experience along the way. Starting a business is both exciting and challenging in equal measure and core to success is a great team focused on a noble mission. We have that in spades here at Webio. My role is simply to set the right tempo and create a culture that will enable our team to shine. I understand the impact that financial wellbeing can have on a person’s mental health, as an entrepreneur I have had my fair share of financial challenges and at Webio we are striving to make those difficult conversations about money that little bit easier for everyone concerned. While entrepreneurship flows through my veins, I have my parents to thank for my educational background. I’m a qualified CIMA accountant with a Degree in Accounting from Ulster University and awarded a full MBA scholarship from St. Joseph's University in Philadelphia, majoring in finance. My educational background has been a rock that I’ve leaned on throughout my career and serves me well today.
