<P><STRONG>Rubrik: </STRONG>Hur ska Sveriges äldre inkluderas i framtidens digitala betalningssystem?<BR><BR><STRONG>Beskrivning av samhällsfrågan</STRONG><BR>Sverige ligger i framkant när det gäller digitala betallösningar och medborgarna har anpassat sig rekordsnabbt. Men utvecklingen har också inneburit att grupper så som våra äldre, riskerar att marginaliseras och hamna på efterkälken. Hur ska alla kunna ta del av framtidens nya betalningslösningar?<BR><BR><STRONG>Utökad information om evenemanget</STRONG><BR>Vi befinner oss i en föränderlig tid där nya sätt att betala konstant vidareutvecklas. Den höga digitaliseringstakten har öppnat upp för många nya möjligheter, men den har även resulterat i att flera grupper i samhället riskerar att hamna på efterkälken. Ett utbrett digitalt utanförskap kan uppstå om det inte finns rätt förutsättningar för äldre att tillgodogöra sig dessa nya teknologier. Hur ska betallösningar byggas upp och tillgängliggöras för flera användargrupper? Hur kan politik, bransch och intresseorganisationer samarbeta för att skapa inkluderande betalningsekosystem? Ihop med spännande aktörer bjuder vi på insikter kring hur marginaliserade grupper kan inkluderas i takt med att nya betalteknologier introduceras.</P>

<P><STRONG>English Program Description<BR></STRONG>Sweden is one of the most digitalized countries in the world, also when it comes to payment solutions. This development has quickly been adapted by the Swedish population but has also resulted in that certain societal groups, such as the elderly, are running the risk of being marginalised and falling behind. How can the industry, politics and the target group best cooperate to make future payment solutions accessible to all? Welcome to a panel discussion where Mastercard together with inspiring industry players share insights on how Sweden’s elderly population can be included in the digital payment systems of the future.</P>
<P>Lighter snacks and coffee/tea will be served in connection to the panel discussion.</P>
<P>The program will be in Swedish. Hope to see you there!</P>
