You’ve probably heard the term “Cash is king.” But in today’s world, cash is on the way out, and the digital technologies that are replacing are transforming the very nature, capabilities and meaning of money. It’s up to the tech and payments industries to build the framework for companies to unlock the value of the digital economy and allow consumers to access it—and that’s exactly what Sherri Haymond and her team are doing.
