Event
SeaMo Presents: Ignacio Mas on Mobile Banking
NOTE: Online ticket sales have ended. Tickets can be purchased at the door.
Everyone needs a safe place to save. Formal savings services need to be accessible conveniently and affordably from every village and every neighborhood. Technology, and in particular cellphones, offer an opportunity to rethink financial service distribution models and substantially reduce the cost of serving poor people.
Please join Ignacio Mas for a discussion on the role of new technologies in expanding access to savings. Ignacio Mas is Deputy Director in the Financial Services for the Poor program at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Ignacio has been a Senior Adviser in the Technology Program at CGAP, Vice President of Marketing and Account Management at interTouch, Director of Global Business Strategy at Vodafone Group, and Senior Manager responsible for telecoms investments in Europe at Intel Capital. Ignacio has been a Visiting Professor of International Business at the Graduate School of Business at the University of Chicago. He holds undergraduate degrees in mathematics and economics from MIT and a PhD in economics from Harvard University.
