G20 TechSprint 2022

 

The G20 TechSprint 2022, launched by the BIS Innovation Hub and Bank Indonesia, focuses on CBDCs, and particularly on challenges and opportunities around three problem statement categories deemed to be of high priority areas by the global central banking and regulatory community.

 

  1. Implementing Effective and Robust Issuance, Distribution and Transference
  2. Enabling Financial Inclusion
  3. Enabling Connectivity and Interoperability

 

Participants were asked to submit proposals to one of the above categories. Crunchfish submitted its Digital Cash platform for the category Enabling Financial Inclusion. The organizers state that they received strong and overwhelming interest, with many practical, yet innovative and game changing solutions proposed from teams around the world. Crunchfish’s proposal was shortlisted and advanced to the next stage of the competition.
