Morais Leitão is supporting the 7th edition of the New Money Conference, which brings together experts from the financial and technology sectors to discuss the trends transforming the future of payments and digital currency.
The Firm will be represented by Filipe Lowndes Marques, Vera Esteves Cardoso and João Diogo Barbosa, who will take part in different sessions throughout the programme.
Filipe Lowndes Marques, partner at Morais Leitão, will participate in the conference’s institutional opening, alongside António Costa, Director of ECO.
This will be followed by the panel “Agentic Payments – From Click to Agent: The Future of the Payment Experience”, focusing on the impact of artificial intelligence on the payment experience and the growing use of AI agents to carry out transactions. The session will feature Carla Castro, Director of E-Commerce, Verticals and Partnerships at Unicre, Francisca Barata Salgueiro, Head of Digital Business at CGD, and Marta Nobre, Chief Strategy Officer at Universo, and will be moderated by Vera Esteves Cardoso, counsel at Morais Leitão.
João Diogo Barbosa, associate at Morais Leitão, will in turn moderate the panel “CBDC and Stablecoins – Digital Euro and Stablecoins: The Future of Money in Europe”, featuring Gonçalo Santos Lopes, Country Manager for Visa in Portugal, and Ricardo Martins, Chief Crypto Officer and Head of Operations & Data Department at Bison Bank.
At a time when artificial intelligence, digitalisation and regulatory developments are rapidly changing the way we pay and think about money, the conference will provide an opportunity to reflect on topics such as agentic payments, the Digital Euro and stablecoins, and on the impact these changes may have on banks, businesses and consumers.
