Advance notice: 13th annual Digital Money Forum, 10th-11th March 2010

A "heads up" so that you can put this date in your diaries. The 13th annual Consult Hyperion Digital Money Forum will be held in London on 10th-11th March 2010. The Forum will be sponsored by the Consultative Group to Assist the Poor (CGAP) and Visa Europe.

• CGAP is an independent policy and research center dedicated to advancing financial access for the world's poor. It is supported by over 30 development agencies and private foundations who share a common mission to alleviate poverty. Housed at the World Bank, CGAP helps governments, microfinance providers, donors, and investors.

• Visa Europe is the leading European payment system, owned and governed by its 4,600 European member banks.

Our thanks to both of these organisations to getting behind the 2010 Forum. We're working on the agenda at the moment and it will be posted to the Forum web site later this year.

Neil McEvoy, Managing Director, attributes the company's success in difficult times to its track record of producing for its clients successful innovations in sensitive areas which are also safe. As he puts it, "Our customers must remain innovative in order to stay ahead of the competition in a period when their customers are more discerning than ever. Against a background of systematic attack on transactional systems, it is vital to apply the right blend of imagination, analytical skill and technical know-how to ensure that new services are both attractive and safe for the long term".
