#DigitalWalletFoundry at Modern Jago 

A day to think, a week to design.

Realise your idea for a wallet application in one week. 

With expert help on everything from coding to agile project development to business planning.  Sanity check your ideas (or conceive a new one) with help from thought leaders and industry experts. If you’re a one man band or a leader of a team of hundreds, if you have a wallet idea (or want one) this event is for you.

The #DWF has been broken down into three themes:

1. Payment: 18.03.13 - 22.03.13  Register above and agenda below

1. Loyalty:    15.04.13 - 19.04.13. 

1. Identity: May Date t.b.a.

The #DWF’s primary goal is to encourage the development of wallet applications.  Developers, designers, industry leaders and ‘people with a view’ will make up the attendees and contributors.  

There will be awards and recognition for products developed and/or conceived during the week. We hope that the people you meet, the buzz of the event, the things you learn and the ideas you generate will be the real reward, but hey what’s wrong with a little public kudos and some top nosh?
