Fintech Forum: A Conversation with Interledger's Chris Lawrence on the 'Internet of Opportunity'

How do we build a financial web that is as open and innovative as the internet itself?

In the latest episode of the FinTech Forum powered by Chimoney podcast, we explore this question with Chris Lawrence, Chief Program Officer at the Interledger Foundation. This is a deep dive into the philosophy and practical work behind building a more inclusive financial future.

In this conversation we cover:

  • The vision for an "Internet of Opportunity," which describes a world where financial value can move as freely and easily as information.

  • How Interledger empowers local innovators to create real-world impact, from transforming remittances with projects like People's Clearinghouse to powering global payments with grantees like Chimoney.

  • Chris's insights on the road ahead, outlining key goals like influencing global policy and building a diverse talent pipeline.
