One Vision — Business
One Vision

One Vision podcast co-hosted by Theodora Lau, Arunkumar Krishnakumar, and Maxson J.Y. Tee, brings purposeful innovation to spotlight.

It is where impact meets innovation. One Vision is a convergence of minds that dream of a sustainable world for future generations galvanized by innovation.

We speak to startup founders, investors, industry players, thought leaders and policy makers in the innovation ecosystem and get their views. While there have been a lot discussed about innovation in the western world, we believe that impact at scale can be achieved in the emerging markets too. In recent times we have seen several leap frog moments across the emerging world. What Alibaba and Tencent have achieved in China, PayTM in India and MPesa in Africa are great examples of impactful stories. We talk to many emerging market players and highlight their efforts to create such leap frog moments.

We believe there are many innovation stories that have impact on people’s life across the world. We identify these stories and talk to them about their journeys, successes and challenges they have had to overcome. In providing a stage for these entrepreneurs, thought leaders and innovators, we hope to inspire a generation looking to effect positive change. One Vision, One Dream, One Voice for One sustainable future.

In the third episode of Rhetoriq podcast focused on Blockchain and Financial Inclusion, Arun and Efi speak to Rik Willard of the Agentic Group.
Rik is a digital pioneer and thought leader focused on the emerging "Internet of Value", where the convergence of payments, security, financial inclusion, and the Internet of Things will greatly influence critical aspects of global business and personal value in the near- and long-term. Just as money drives business today, new forms of value will begin to take shape based on emerging digital economies, significantly altering our definitions of value to better suit our interconnected world.
In this episode of Rhetoriq podcast, Rik shares his views on how mass adoption of Blockchain is a technosocial challenge. He elaborates on his journey and how his involvement in the Blockchain world led him to setting up the Agentic group. It was fascinating hearing him describe how this paradigm had the potential to transform a community to an ecosystem to an economy of value exchange.

Blockchain and Financial Inclusion: The Rising Star Oct 17, 2018

Show notes

Agree, the title gives it all away. Today Arun Krishnakumar and Efi Pylarinou talk to Lisa Nestor at Stellar Development Foundation. Stellar, based out of San Francisco, have been expanding their presence across the world quite significantly. They were recently one of the top 5 cryptos in terms of market capitalisation.
Lisa is the director of partnerships at the Stellar Development Foundation. She has had a lot of emerging markets experience in both Africa and India and has seen the on-the-ground challenges of providing financial services to consumers in those regions.
In today's episode, Lisa shares with us Stellar's work with IBM, and how the partnership is growing. She feels that it is critical for them to be collaborating with incumbent financial services firms to bring about financial inclusion, rather than creating a whole new world of financial services.
She gives us a view of her experiences in India, and the microfinance work she did out of Chennai, and clarifies her views on why its important to have horses for courses when it comes to Ethereum vs Stellar.
She also shares her adventures with South Indian food and coffee. Don't miss it!!

Blockchain and Financial Inclusion: An African Diamond Oct 09, 2018

Show notes

In the first episode of Rhetoriq podcast focused on Blockchain and Financial Inclusion, Arun and Efi speak to Tricia Martinez of Wala in Africa. Tricia shares with us her reasons that led to her founding Wala and issuing Dala focused on Africa. She discusses her journeys within the African continent and why "Banking the Unbanked" in a conventional sense is actually - nonsense. The Unbanked population of the world don't need banks and can't deal with the traditional system. Is Blockchain the solution?

Hear how Wala has grown to be the go-to solution for the people of Africa for fee-less value exchange. While MPesa started the payments revolution, the infrastructure created by them still has interoperability problems and high fees for transactions. Can Wala overcome those issues?

Wala Foundation recently won an award as the best firm for Financial Inclusion in Africa from MIT and MasterCard foundation. And Tricia shares how it all happened.
