Homo Digitalis Successfully Participates in TEDxPatras Representing NGI TALER

On May 17, Homo Digitalis had the great honor of participating in TEDxPatras at the Conference and Cultural Center of the University of Patras, proudly representing NGI TALER!

We delivered a 40-minute workshop, during which we had the opportunity to discuss digital payments, business models that track consumer behavior for profit, the relevant legal framework, and the importance of reshaping the future of digital payments with a focus on privacy protection and promoting free software solutions like GNU TALER (Taler Systems S.A.).

Our presentation also highlighted the ongoing funding calls under the NGI TALER project, as well as the academic materials that have been developed and are freely available on the NGI TALER website.

Alexandra Giannopoulou and Eleftherios Chelioudakis represented Homo Digitalis at this event.
We warmly thank the organizers for the opportunity to participate!
