Neohub, DenizBank Group

Founder and CEO

Gürhan Cam is the president of Innovation and deputy chief digital officer at DenizBank. He spoke to Efma’s Boris Plantier about his life and work.

 

Please tell me a little about your background.

I started my career as a management trainee in corporate banking. For my first three years I worked in the core banking business. I then changed career path, converting instead to financial IT. In 2012 I became the head of Innovative Special Projects at DenizBank. Since returning to banking, my team and I have had leading roles in building next-generation products and services. I have helped create award-winning products such as FastPay, Twitter Loan, MobilDeniz and DijitalDeniz. In my time DenizBank has won ‘Most Innovative Bank in The World’ and ‘Global Innovator’ titles three years in a row.

I am now the deputy chief digital officer at DenizBank, responsible for digital banking and everything that comes with it. As the president of Innovation, I also coordinate all corporate innovation processes around the bank.
