Special Episode: Point Zero Forum: 130 million refugees worldwide in 2024 | How can Blockchain and Fintech help?
This week on #BBE, we highlight the Point Zero Forum conference, an organizational endeavor between Elevandi and the State Secretariat for International Finance SIF. As a media partner for the Zurich event from July 1-3, in this episode we discuss the status of displaced people and refugees, emphasizing their importance post-EU elections. Explore how fintech sectors offer solutions beyond prepaid cards, with showcases like Cardano’s blockchain and biometric ID systems by the International Rescue Committee and iRespond. Discover innovative approaches, such as UNHCR’s award-winning blockchain initiatives in Ukraine, and learn how to support efforts like those of UNHCR. And of course, don’t forget to join us in Zurich to continue this vital conversation.
