The DEA celebrates Ripple’s participation, expressing joy by stating, “We are thrilled to have Ripple on board as the gold sponsor for the Digital Euro Conference (#DEC24)! Join us on February 29, 2024, and meet industry leaders.”

This new partnership places the fintech company alongside Ernst & Young, one of the “Big 4” and a prominent entity in global auditing, as the exclusive main sponsors of the event.

The conference is tailored for a diverse audience, including bankers, investors, startups, financial organizations, and professionals in law, regulation, and digitization. It provides a unique opportunity for attendees to gain insights from industry leaders and policymakers at the forefront of digital currency innovation.

The DEA, a think tank specializing in crypto assets, stablecoins, CBDCs, and other forms of digital money, plays a crucial role in facilitating knowledge exchange and advancing public understanding in the field of digital money. Ripple’s involvement as a key member of the DEA is a clear testament to its commitment to shaping the future of digital currencies.

Ripple’s notable contribution to a DEA whitepaper on CBDCs and privacy was highlighted in March 2023. Additionally, Ripple’s active participation in the National Bank of Georgia’s digital Lari pilot project was acknowledged by the DEA in November 2023.

By aligning with key financial players and making substantial contributions to fundamental discussions about the future of money, Ripple solidifies its influential role in the world of digital finance today.
