Exploring how economic need created by the current crisis could force the next great evolution of the world’s monetary system
We are joined by economic historian Marc Coleman who has written extensively on the history of money, recovery from debt, the effects of Brexit and now of the covid-19 pandemic on the concept of what is money.
Marc will be sharing:
How the economic impact of the Covid-19 pandemic (following Brexit) has impacted money
How this has led to increased digitisation
Where blockchain (and increasingly crypto) comes into this
What is the future of post-pandemic money?
