Some Testimonials from our Sponsors
"We found the conference very interesting, there is a nice programme, a lot of delegates and very interesting speeches. The venue is nice, and we hope we have the opportunity to visit a similar area in this region, we are very interested in the middle Asian countries, so thank you for organising it and we definitely will be back."
"It has been a great pleasure being here and meeting many delegates from around the world and many central banks, as well as having our team members participate in panel sessions and presentations covering several topics. What we appreciate most about the Currency Research events is the prevalence of the valuable material and content compared to other conferences."
"We are delighted to be here at the conference and we’re meeting with a great number of commercial and central banks and also payment companies. It is a great opportunity to talk about the growth of payment technology in the region. The opportunity to meet banks from different countries, new territories and talk about how we connect them through our infrastructure and other infrastructures globally I think is a great opportunity. It is great to see collaboration between private and public sector in action and it is a great opportunity to deep dive into the challenges of this region. An absolutely fantastic event."
"This conference is an incredible platform for knowledge sharing and collaboration. The panel discussions and presentations are truly insightful and present diverse perspectives on the future of money. This conference is also a fantastic opportunity to connect to industry leaders, exchange ideas, and contribute to the ongoing evolution of money. Finally, I would like to thank Currency Research for organising this conference and the participants for making this conference a remarkable experience."
"We are here in Mexico at The Currency Conference, and we just presented our new project called the “Absence of Everything” which is a new way to think about bank notes. We are really glad to be here with all the colleagues in the industry."
"Greetings from Mexico City, we are super happy to be back after four years, and we are also extremely happy to meet again with Central Banks and all the key players of the industry. This event is also much more than a get-together, it is probably one of the most changing parts that we have now in the cash industry with a shift to electronic payments and digital currencies is also changing or needs to change the model of cash circulation and cash recirculation. We are much more agile and also the availability of cash and the costs that need to be under control, that’s going to be the big challenge for the next twenty years."
"We are thrilled and proud to have been associated with the Currency Research Global Payments Summit. These last few days have been amazing, absolutely incredible, being in the beautiful city of Cape Town and surrounded by all of these really really smart payments people and talking about all of these wonderful innovations in the payments landscape. We are proud to be able to talk about the launch of the Paysharp Instant Payments System on this platform and to use this as an opportunity to engage and network with all of these global payments thought leaders. We are really proud to be associated and look forward to future engagements like this."
"Greetings from Cape Town everyone. We have been one of the sponsors here at both events – The Central Bank Payments Conference and The Global Payments Summit. I have to say it has been the most excellent week, I guess it always helps a little when you end up in a location that you want to go to as an individual, that is always a nice start but sometimes you get there and the event itself, not so much. This has been truly an added value event for us, extremely well organised, and we were very pleased to be able to sponsor the conversations that we have had around our booth and in individual meetings have all been added value. So great to be here and congratulations Currency Research on two events extremely well organised and we look forward to participating in them again next year."
"We had a fascinating time here at the conferences, the kind of people we have interacted with were completely out of this world. The size of the conference allows you to interact with everybody and form relationships which I don’t think we could have formed otherwise. There were key people from the banks who we could interact with. It has been fantastic, we have met people not only from Africa but from all over the world, on many different continents. It has been an amazing possibility to build relationships and network with people from all around the world. We are really happy and we will be back."
"It has been an honour and a privilege for the Ripple CBDC team to attend the Digital Currency Conference this week in Mexico City. One of the great things about the conference is the opportunity to speak directly with Central Bankers and learn about the issues they are facing, and how they are trying to design CBDC applications that work for them. I was just in a session with Kwame from the Bank of Ghana and the lead from the Bank of Jamaica on their digital currency projects and that was just a fantastic experience. Thank you Currency Research for hosting us."
"I would like to thank Currency Research for another successful event in Bangkok this year, it has been great meeting old friends and new friends and getting the industry together in the region and of course from elsewhere, from Europe and the US as well. It was a very fruitful event; we had a lot of learnings and best practices to share. We would like to thank you and offer our support for the next event."
"It was my pleasure to be a part of The Asia Cash Cycle Seminar, we managed to establish the right connections in order to achieve a synergy in the cash cycle process. It was delightful for me to see such a lot of new and old friends in our hometown of Bangkok. We’re looking forward to the next one."
