International Payments 101 for Growing Companies

Thomas L. Friedman was right when he wrote his book "The World is Flat" in 2005. We live in a different world for sure. Today, when you create a startup or a new business, your customers and suppliers can be all over the world. The same can be said for established companies. Mobile Apps are even worse as they can be used anywhere in the world on Day 1. So, how do you get paid in this new world ? Did things evolve as rapidly on the payment supplying side? Do CEOs know about these solutions? Does everyone need a Money Transmitter License when you deal with consumers? What happens when you have one in one region but not another where you are expanding your business? These are some of the questions that will be asked to our eminent panelists who had to go through the hurdles or are faced with this problem everyday in their day to day business. This event, sponsored by Wells Fargo and the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, will be hosted at Wells Fargo 's Corporate Learning Center, 333 Market Street (Annex Building, 2nd Floor) San Francisco, CA on March 26, 2014 from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm. Food and drinks will be provided. We want to thank our sponsors Wells Fargo and the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg for their support.
