The worlds of payments, retail and mobile are converging in ways that were not widely anticipated, even in the last few years. Mobile phone operators, global technology companies, and established and alternative payment networks are all vying for their stake in the future of payments.

This isn't just about smart phones-it's about fundamental shifts in the ecosystem, everyday spend, impact on everyone from the emerging mobile merchants to large retailers. The incumbents are forced to innovate, while groups like Google, PayPal & Isis are poised to extend, complement, or disrupt these commerce platforms.

What will the impact be on consumers? How will mobile wallets, alternative payments and rising security concerns change at the point-of-sale? Will there be a point-of-sale? Is there a roadmap to follow in this transformational decade in the US and abroad with the rapid evolution of technology, standards, security and privacy issues?

Join the conversation with this group of thought leaders from PayPal, VeriFone, and VISA, and hear their take on the trends, opportunities, and vision for the future.
