"IMTFI Annual Conference for Funded Research"

September 29-30, 2010
9:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.
University of California, Irvine Student Center, Doheny Beach Rooms A&B

This conference brings together the institute’s second year award recipients who will present their preliminary findings. As more and more philanthropic, industry and development actors ask whether mobile technology can help provide access to needed financial services like savings and money transfer, these projects look to the experience on the ground of existing, traditional money systems and financial practices, as well as the potential and real impact of new technology in providing access to finance for the world’s poor.

**Presentations for all sessions of IMTFI's Annual Conference Sept. 2010 are now available online. **
