Speaking Engagements
At D2D, we believe knowledge sharing is an integral part of the innovation process. Whether speaking to a room of financial industry leaders or taking in the latest tech expo, D2D strives to spread scalable ideas and gain new perspective on sustainable and creative strategies to better serve low- and moderate-income consumers. D2D’s staff experts can share a breadth of lessons learned from the financial innovation process on a range of topics including: prize-linked savings models, prepaid cards, gamification, reimagining financial education, leveraging mobile and web technologies, and taking advantage of impulse saving at tax time. Below are some speaking engagements D2D’s staff experts have been a part of recently. We’d love to connect with you and your organization at an event soon. Simply email info@d2dfund.org or follow D2D on Twitter to see if we’re live-conference-tweeting!
