What we want you to remember
1. eToro - size, domain, legacy
2. Massive changes required - Architecture
+ Culture
3. Changes during supporting existing
growing user base
4. Archimedes points - culture change +
management support
5. Change is slow, will take a while
6. Many unknowns - solve as we go
7. Most important - define end goals
8. The people on the bus are key to success
