Shared Infrastructure to unlock Last-Mile Financial Inclusion using the Mifos DPGs for Core Banking

In this talk we will present our vision for shared infrastructure powered by the Mifos DPGs for core banking and payment orchestration. By enabling access to modern core banking in the cloud for last-mile financial institutions, we can fuel adoption of the ILF technology stack and enable the meaningful usage of digital financial services by under-represented groups and vulnerable populations.
