Synopsis
The European Commission defines Sustainable Finance as “the process of taking environmental, social & governance (ESG) considerations into account when making investment decisions in the financial sector, leading to more long-term investments in sustainable economic activities & projects.”
BlockW & The Bigger Pie are delighted to present this partnership event during Blockchain Ireland Week 2021.
We will discuss real world projects with Founders, Investors & Advisors – those doing the work – in the field harnessing blockchain & a variety of crypto protocols, digital assets, as well as other emerging tech to fundamentally change how finance is traced, collected & distributed amongst SMEs in emerging & developed economies, the unbanked & underbanked, through P2P networks.
Digitisation is the foundation of inclusion into our evolving networked & interconnected lives from agriculture to healthcare to financial services. We have watched innovation leapfrog regions over time.
Mobile technology now covers 70% of the world’s population & rising! It has enabled developing countries to “LEAPFROG” the fixed-line technology of the 20th century and move straight to the mobile technology of the 21st.
