Details

As the world undergoes rapid technological advancements and evolving economic landscapes, the concept of money and the financial systems supporting it are being reimagined. Our headline speaker David Birch will explore the fundamental of money and transpose that to a not-so-far future to investigate new shapes of money and how that may influence the way we pay.

We will explore the rise of digital currencies, including central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), cryptocurrencies, stablecoins, and decentralized finance (DeFi), and their potential impact on traditional financial systems, as well as their chances for success.
