Edufinet, the financial education project promoted by Unicaja Banco and Fundación Unicaja, is increasing its activity this week on the occasion of Global Money Week, an initiative promoted by the OECD to raise awareness on the importance of basic education in finance. For that purpose, among other activities, it has launched on its website (www.edufinet.com) a microsite on new technologies applied to finance.

 

EdufiTech, a site included on Edufinet, features contents to learn about new technologies applied to finance, which are related to all citizens in their daily lives.

 

The contents of EdufiTech include information on the digitalization of financial services, fintechs and bigtechs, blockchain, crypto-currencies, big data and artificial intelligence, distributed registry technology, smart contracts, automated financial advising or crowd-funding platforms.

 

The presentation of this new microsite will take place tomorrow Thursday, from 10:00, via a webinar with the following access link:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNCXWKLT_UM.

 

Edufinet’s website also includes other sections such as Edufiblog and EdufiAcademics and a videogame, as well as two specific portals: Edufinext, for young people, and Edufiemp, for business owners and entrepreneurs. The project also has a YouTube channel and Facebook and Twitter accounts.
