Today we are starting a series of blog posts about fintech. The first one is a post about what fintech actually is and where the term comes from.

The turn of the year is a good time to take stock of the past year and to try to predict what the year ahead will bring.
2021 was supposed to be a year of stability after the nightmare year of 2020. It wasn't.
Since Mark Zuckerberg announced at the end of October 2021 that he has changed the name of Facebook to Meta and outlined his vision of an immersive virtual world where people would want to spend their time, a number of companies have come forward with similar plans to create virtual worlds.
Facebook alone plans to hire, in Europe alone, 10,000 employees dedicated to working on virtual worlds. At the same time, Nike has filled a number of patent applications for brand trademarks used in 3D virtual worlds. Epic Games, the company that created Fortnite, one of the world's most popular computer games, also has plans to create a similar space. A few months earlier, in April 2021, the head of Nvidia, an American producer of chip and graphics processing units, spoke about similar plans. The word "metaverse" has appeared in the mainstream media for good.
The DevOps methodology has been with us for over 10 years. It has revolutionised the software development process in the face of the mass adoption of cloud technologies.
Today we all know what DevOps is - close cooperation of people from the area of IT infrastructure maintenance, software development and testing. The infrastructure is available in the cloud or virtualized. Implementing DevOps significantly accelerates the implementation of new features and dramatically speeds up the software development process.
We write a lot on this blog about how AI can help humanity make the world a better place: accelerating medical and pharmaceutical research, producing safer because autonomous cars, monitoring the development of epidemics, monitoring climate change, or creating intelligent robots to assist and care for people in hospitals or elderly care homes.
I've prepared this post with non-technical people in mind, but who, like me, are interested in technology development. However, I think it will also be interesting and useful for young programmers who are interested in IT development in general. Have you already heard about quantum computers? Many of you probably have.

First a note: I have selected these 7 books from dozens of items from my library on Kindle relating to the recruitment and recruiting industry. I tried to choose titles that best show what the role of a recruiter is - working within the company's structures or on the side of a third-party recruitment provider, and which help to fulfill this role best.
In this post I continue my review of Mark Schwartz's book 'A seat at the table' which has been a source of much inspiration for me recently. In that post I described the development of the CIO position over the last 30 years. What emerges from the story is a picture of a person involved in a perpetual conflict in a company ...
This series of posts is on the one hand a review of a very interesting book by Mark Schwartz "A seat at the table". On the other, some reflections on who CIOs/CTOs really are and how this role(s) has evolved over the last 20 years. How much the image of both corporate IT has changed and how the image of software development and software development management has changed. Finally, where is the place of the CIO in the times to come?
It's been a bit empty here for a while. Sorry, but we've had the busiest quarter since we've been involved in IT recruitment.This is a very good sign for everyone. Since the end of February we have clearly seen not only stabilisation on the IT job market, more importantly we have seen the unfreezing of large projects in large companies.
Welcome to 2021!
The number 21 is associated with luck, risk, taking chances and having the world at your feet. It is the minimum age at which you can buy alcohol or enter the casino in the USA. All of which seems to correspond well with the year of the uncertainty.
Nevertheless, let’s try to formulate some trends in HR and Recruiting, based on our observations of the last 12 months.
Will artificial intelligence replace journalists and perhaps even writers? In June 2020, OpenAI (supported by Elon Musk) which is one of the two main AI research laboratories (their competitor is DeepSense) presented another version (GPT-3) of the natural language model, which is considered by many as a breakthrough.
