Builder of high-growth start-ups and enterprise divisions alike, Gonzalo was the first general manager of Google Latin America and held senior roles at Microsoft and Mercado Libre. He now leads Ditto, building the identity and access management platform that helps banks, payment providers and other regulated organisations confirm their customers are who they say they are. Many firms rely on separate tools that leave gaps fraud can exploit. Ditto replaces them with one platform. It secures mobile apps and the devices they run on, verifies customers when they sign up, and confirms their identity each time they log in, make account changes, or make payments. All with the minimum data necessary, so trust never comes at the cost of privacy.
Discussion Framework: The discussion will examine how Europe can build a trusted and interoperable digital financial ecosystem as the digital euro, instant and account-to-account payments, digital identity wallets and new payment schemes move from policy and experimentation towards widespread adoption.
Strategic Theme: How can Europe create a seamless digital financial ecosystem in which new forms of money, payment rails and digital identity work together at scale without compromising security, privacy, competition and consumer trust?
