To: Jeffrey [email protected]] From: Jem Bendell Sent Thur 3/0/20141:29:11 PM Subject: Update on currency innovation Dear Jeffrey, We corresponded about 18 months ago, after being connected with each other via the Gates Foundation. You were interested in hosting a group to discuss monetary reform and currency innovation. Then suddenly I didnt hear anymore. I hope all is OK? I write for two reasons. Im in NYC March 20th to 24th so could meet and discuss. Second, things have exploded in this field since 18 months ago, due to bitcoin, and so now Im better resourced and connected to that field as well as the less high profile new currencies. Im putting together a project with the UN to better inform policy makers and regulators about these issues. It will feed into the World Investment Forum in Sept and also the post Millenium Development Goals international agreement about financing for development. Maybe something we could discuss.
