How Regulated Organisations Turned Controls Into Platform Capabilities
Date: September 18th, 2026
Host: Deutsche Bank
Location: Canary Wharf, London
Vibe: Breakfast through Lunch | Informal | Real-talk
A morning seminar for technical leaders on building the platforms and controls that carry compliance in regulated environments.
Most institutions arrive at automated compliance the same way. Someone decides the manual process can’t hold, a small team starts building, and the real work turns out to be nothing like the plan.
This session looks at that work from two directions. Erik Weber takes us through Norsk Tipping’s journey in one of Europe’s most tightly regulated sectors: where they started, what they got wrong, the options they weighed, and where they’ve landed. Gregor Hohpe steps back to the platform question underneath it, arguing that in-house platforms exist to turn institutional knowledge into executable services and APIs, which is exactly what an automated control is.
Between them sits the question this group keeps returning to: how do you encode what your organisation knows about risk into something a developer, or increasingly an agent, actually runs against?
As always: hosted by a member institution, Chatham House Rules, no vendor pitches. Come prepared to engage.
Agenda
A tales-from-the-trenches walk through of where we started, our struggles, the options we considered, and how the journey has unfolded.
Erik Weber, Senior Platform Engineer, Norsk Tipping
Developer platforms promised to defy the IT laws of physics: innovation through harmonisation, speed without losing compliance, less cognitive load without restricting choice. Many teams learned the hard way that building one in-house is far from easy, and plenty ended up renaming existing IT services and were doomed from the start. Now we appear to be starting over, as platforms must serve agents alongside or instead of human developers. A good moment to rethink what in-house platforms are really for: they mould institutional knowledge into executable services and APIs, and represent the organisation’s point of view on a fast-moving technology frontier. That makes them more necessary than ever.
