Smart Data and the Future Mortgage Journey

Novus Strategy is back with our annual Digital Disruption Live event, and this year we’re moving the conversation from industry insight to organisational impact.

The mortgage market is changing.

For the first time, many of the concepts that have dominated industry discussion over recent years are beginning to move beyond theory and into real world implementation. Smart Data, trust frameworks, interoperability, AI, automation and industry collaboration are no longer future considerations. They are becoming practical realities that will shape how organisations compete, operate and serve customers.

Digital Disruption Live 2026 brings together lenders, industry leaders and market innovators to explore what is changing, what it means for your organisation and how leading firms are responding.

Panel 1: The Internal Lens

Hosted by Pete Gatenby, this panel conversation examines what lenders need to do within their own organisations, including priorities, operating models, technology, data, process and capability.

Panel 2: The External Lens

Hosted by Chris Williams, this panel focuses on collaboration across the wider ecosystem, exploring how lenders, vendors, partners and industry initiatives are working together to solve problems that no single organisation can solve alone.

Panel 3: Bringing It All Together

Hosted by Claire Van der Zant, this panel session provides a real world perspective through an executive discussion focused on how organisations are moving from industry discussion into practical delivery.

The objective is simple: attendees leave with greater clarity, a better understanding of the direction of travel and increased confidence in the decisions required to prepare their organisations for what comes next.
