Zoom Closing Roundtable - What are the take aways?

Largely by coincidence we found a panel of executives who are all French. More importantly, they are all payments experts - one from consulting, one from a Fintech and one from the airline industry trade body to add a perspective from each of the verticals on the take aways from the event.

This was a great session to hear their insights and network with your fellow participants from around the world.
