When #art meets #bitcoin! Telling the story of #bitcoin and other cryptos through artwork. I love when different communities collide, and how art can be incorporated to tell better stories about technology, especially to reach & educate wider audiences. rukin

Our team keeps growing! Looking for a rock star to join this rocket ship to help other rocket ships!

Last week was a great example of our ecosystem advancing. After 5 years of me pushing corporates to adopt startups, the Insurance industry, whom were previously uninterested, were super engaged during the @HoltAccelerator & Communitech #insurtech partnership workshop.

Yummm. Money20/20 always seek out the "Sweets" breakfast stand. One of the few conferences where the food is delicious and included!

A fun and sharp group during the FinteQC 2019. Deeper collaborations with existing partners, alongside modular systems & processes to onboard new partners, are needed for global leadership! Shout out to awesome panelists Commercial Passport, @CRZUS_app, Stamped, and IVADO.

#Fintech's only #Formathon finals is underway, 2019 edition! I'm a big believer in community building through #OpenInnovation and #Challenge_Driven_Innovation! Proud sponsor and judge - hoping some teams make it to @HoltAccelerator Selection Day '19.

I am thrilled to join our @HoltAccelerator founding partners @StradigiAI at lunch time today (12pm EST) for a Twitter Live Chat on the hot topic of #AI and #FinServ. To follow along and hear my thoughts and other expert opinions on the subject follow #StradigiAIChat.

.@stradigiAI A1: Improving customer profiling! From improved sales through more tailored services / products (Kapitalwise, LoanConnect, Ivy Lender), to deeper “KYC” for fraud / AML prevention (owl, inga vilka), to better credit scoring (Caroline Norris). #StradigiAIchat

.@stradigiAI A4: Everything Open Banking, with leaders and purposes that included UK (improving bank switching), Europe & Singapore (improving competition), and Australia (open data beyond banking). Canada needs to move faster - we are at least 5 years behind! #StradigiAIchat

.@stradigiAI A5: Partner with fintechs! The survival of financial service institutions is building more modular systems and processes in which you can connect more quickly with modern-day vendors (i.e. fintechs) in order to more quickly better serve your customer! #StradigiAIChat

.@stradigiAI A6: Canada AI Fintech Ecosystem. While there are some reports and events, I’m not seeing enough cross-Canada actions to better unite our cities and provinces to have a larger impact. Let’s better unite Canada! #wethenorth #StradigiAIchat

Wonderful Regtech a Montreal hosted by our friends Canadian RegTech Association! Proud to be on panel with a personal advisor to me Lise Estelle Brault. We need more efforts to unify regulations across Canadian jurisdictions, especially to support advancing the "improperly branded" #OpenBanking.

The great one - Wayne Gretzky! Love this quote; but, how can you miss a shot if you didnt take it? :-p

For those that can, I strongly suggest donating to important causes during these challenging time. Below is one example, the MUHC Foundation. What do others in Twitter-verse suggest? COVID-19 Emergency Fund - Emergency Fund muhcf.akaraisin.com/emergency
