Why

Fintech is changing the world of Payments and the International Money Transfer & Payments industry is in the middle of a revolution that it is not very obvious at first glance, but we do feel the earth shacking underneath of the legacy systems that make sending money internationally so inefficient in so many ways. The industry has many moving parts, many connections, so the change will be slow. Customer habits are difficult to change so direct-client-based solutions will take a bit longer to develop and prosper. Partnerships between the traditional and the new are being developed step by step bringing new vitality to the industry ecosystem. The potential that the Blockchain has is enormous. Companies using the Blockchain in a number of very innovative ways can be a vital part of a new international money transfer system that can include the traditional remittance companies if they adapt, partner and evolve. The blockchain technology behind bitcoin & ripple (as well as others) can be a secure & cost-efficient digital money system (and communication system too) that will undoubtedly bring a number of changes to the way we transfer value internationally. And the innovations are happening now!. Regulation is slowly making the ecosystem more dependable and safer. Compliance and KYC will be even easier than is today. That is why we at IMTC think that it is important to learn, to listen, to analyze and to create partnership between the old and the new to find better ways to move forward as an industry.

MTBIT is the forum to discuss Innovations in Remittances, to discuss the Blockchain, Bitcoin and other new ideas and developments, to explore the challenges we are facing and the opportunities that lay ahead. To see what Fintech is brewing now. The future is now.

MTBIT is a Forum where we invite companies across the world that are actively developing solutions to move money internationally for people and businesses to present their business models being developed or already in place to solve issues related to cost, speed, KYC, operational, financial, regulatory, in creative ways to make it easier and better to move value across borders. We also invite a group of seasoned industry colleagues to listen to the presentations, ask questions, confront ideas and at the end give a sound feedback to the companies presented before we all walk to the conference welcome reception with the feeling of a new community being born.

What

The MTBIT Forum will have morning sessions with a mid-morning coffee break, a mid-day Lunch and afternoon sessions with a mid-afternoon coffee break. In this afternoon break MTBIT attendees will visit IMTC’s Trade Fair. We will close the day with a Welcome Reception for great networking (with drinks, hors d’oeuvres and live entertainment).

The MTBIT Forum is normally held in English. Upon completion of the day, participants will receive an IMTC’s MTBIT Day Participation Certificate.
