In case you missed it, here are the topics Javier spoke about in “How Should I Invest in the Future of Payments?”
1. Convenience is the overarching trend in payments. That means seamless, integrated, instant, secure, cheap and value-added payments
2. Convenient payments are embedded/invisible finance, and this is where the industry should go
3. Founders benefit from seeking investors who offer more than just money. Operating experience and contextual knowledge can lead to fruitful relationships between founders and investors
