South Africa’s First National Bank (FNB) is the largest issuer of Visa cards in Africa.

It used a partnership approach to drive a new innovation by applying HCE to drive its issuing strategy. The new system is integrated on its widely-used mobile banking app. It allows FNB’s customers to have a card issued where they want it – on their mobile device.

A live demonstration of the issuing and provisioning process will be given to conference attendees.

‘How HCE materially changed the issuance strategy of a major bank’. David De Coning, director, Opengate Abnote,
14:00 – 14:30, Room 1

    In a new twist to waste-to-fuel technology, scientists at the US Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have accidentally developed an electrochemical process that uses tiny spikes of carbon and copper to turn carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, into ethanol. The team used a catalyst made of carbon, copper and nitrogen and applied voltage to trigger a complicated chemical reaction that essentially reverses the combustion process. With the help of the nanotechnology-based catalyst which
