Just finished up my session @Interledger #IFLSummit22 . It was amazing sitting with other creators and builders representing the US, Canada, LATAM, and Africa (felt like the United Nations) speaking about financial inclusion for BIPOC and people with disabilities.
We talk about “Broadening Financial Inclusion…what does that mean?”. Join @_sharonwang, as she explores the topic with @EricaHargreave, @AddVic_e, @karlitocarter and Andrés Arauz, CEO - of the People’s Clearinghouse) at #ILPSummit22.

I'm thinking about hosting an online pitch competition.
If I personally donated $1,000 to a cash prize, would anyone be interested in participating?
I would try to find sponsors to match my contribution and the goal would be to give a $5,000 prize to the winner.
Thoughts?
