Event Summary
PREPAID: HOW TO DELIVER PROFITS
Now in its fourth year following three successive sell-outs from it's conception in 2005, the massively popular
Prepaid Card Summit event is taking place for the second time at London’s Brewery, one of London’s largest and most attractive venues.
The prepaid market is rapidly expanding and growing at an unprecedented rate, year after year, across several diverse and
emerging industry sectors. The question on the minds of industry players is how to capitalise on this rapid growth in the most profitable way.
What are the challenges that face the prepaid industry in the next year? And what role are banks ready to play in the prepaid value chain?
Ethical and regulatory problems, co-branding, segmented marketing analysis and campaigns, and innovative and technological applications
for prepaid card use are all important factors for successful products.
Prepaid Cards Summit 2008 will examine the opportunities and challenges facing all players in the industry and look at ways
to maximise them. Offering a unique multi-perspective view of the industry, Prepaid Cards Summit 2008 will unite an international
panel of distinguished speakers from across the prepaid space, and key figures from Financial services, Travel, Telecoms, Government
services and many more industries.
The event will present numerous industry case studies to paint a truly global picture of the sector – allowing you to maximise
the challenges and meet the opportunities presented by this fast growing industry.
The conference is organised by VRL KnowledgeBank and offers an excellent opportunity for bankers and industry experts to engage
in a frank and thought-provoking discussion on issues that concern the industry. Our conference in 2007 was highly regarded, with
delegates from around the world - ranging from the UK and Switzerland to Italy, The Netherlands, USA, Middle East and Asia Pacific.
