The Event
"No other conference in our industry compares"
Jack Selby, VP Intl. Business Development, Paypal
In its sixth year, the annual Digital Money Forum consisted of two days of interactive discussion and debate from the centre of the digital money world.
The Forum was not about technology or marketing: it was about the whole subject of the digitisation of money and the implications of that process for individuals, businesses and governments.
A central theme of the sixth forum was growth in the "new wave" of digital money schemes around the world.
Both speakers and delegates were leaders in the field, looking at the evolution of retail electronic payments from the consumer, regulatory, bank, merchant, legal, sociological
and other perspectives. With experts in financial systems, interactive TV, mobile commerce, mass transit, retail and related subjects gathered together, the Forum continued to be the place
to be for anyone who wants to understand Digital Money.
"Money's destiny is to become digital"
Read what Riel Miller, editor of The Future of Money, had to say in his keynote speech on the first day of the Forum.
