MicroSave intends to host a virtual conference on Electronic Banking for the Poor between the 16-27th of February 2004. Participants who subscribe to the virtual conference will contribute to an email based discussion of key issues in providing electronic banking services to mass markets. Key questions will be set on a daily basis that will be complemented by an overview and introduction to each day's discussion, which is based on practical experience. The conference will share knowledge and will network individuals and organisations worldwide that are working in this exciting but challenging environment. It will cover all forms of electronic banking from Palm pilots, to mag-stripe, smart card and telephone- based services.
