European Payments Initiative (EPI) Podcast Series in collaboration with Netcetera and G+D – Part 1 (Video)

The time has come for more European sovereignty in retail payments. 

What is EPI exactly? Does it make sense to create a European card scheme, when the Digital Euro is coming anyway? Do we give up control over everyday payments in Europe to global players & BigTech?

These are some of the questions we will be trying to answer in this exclusive 3 part podcast series in cooperation with Giesecke+Devrient (G+D) and Netcetera.

For this week’s first part, we are joined by Carsten Wengel of Giesecke+Devrient (G+D), Vlado Galevski of Netcetera, and Marcus Nasarek of eTonec with whom we’ll be discussing what EPI is and what it’s looking to achieve.

The European Payments Initiative: What you always wanted to ask but never dared – with the help of experts!

The episode is also available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
