Tom Nawara, Troy Bernard,  Douglas Kilgour, Conrad Sheehan were talking about how mobile payment may transform company’s revenue cycle

The main thoughts of their speeches are:

• Conrad Sheehan, CEO mPayy does not expect great changes in 12-18 mos. Expects gradual changes to niche markets.
• Douglas Kilgour:  What retailers DON'T want to do is change the way their back offices work. Leverage what you've got.  Sbucks sacrifices 30% of sales via their pay cards since the can't be accepted at the drive through
• Troy Bernard: Almost every country in the world BUT the US has EMV. EMV and NFC will come here in next few years. Futures phones will have NFC chips but it’s the reader that will make the difference

Awesome Bridget Brennan make a great speech for us.

Bridget gave some interesting statistics:

• Women talk and text 30% more than men
• Women over 45 are the fastest growing segment on Facebook
• Women dominate purchasing in almost every category on the Web (except for music, consumer electronics & auctions).

Compliments are the currency of female communication.

When it comes to visual design, men and women respond to it in different ways:

Bridget’s recomendations

• look at mobile initiatives through lens of emotional outcomes
• recognize that women look at brand holistically with little distinction between channels
• remember to make women feel inspired and connected
• when building mobile apps - remember to gender specific usability testing and bring female designers on your design team.
