CBDC Academy: Protecting Sovereignty: From Ink to Inclusive Digital Cash
SICPA opens the CBDC Academy with “Protecting Sovereignty: From Ink to Inclusive Digital Cash”, setting the tone for the conference. With over 70 years securing value for central banks in 130+ countries, SICPA positions CBDC not as a payment upgrade but as a sovereign decision. The session introduces SICPA Digital Cash, a retail CBDC solution designed for inclusion: offline, privacy-preserving, and with no additional device needed. SICPA will demonstrate how sovereign digital cash bridges physical and digital, reinforcing trust and resilience. Participants leave with a clear view of SICPA as a long-term, central-bank-aligned partner.
