International Executive Roundtables
Since 1989, the Institute for International Business has hosted the International Executive Roundtable lecture series for university students, staff, faculty, and members of the international business community. These events serve as a forum in which executives and government officials meet with university faculty, staff, and students to discuss timely issues in international business. They also educate students, staff, and faculty about international business practices and provide exposure to the experiences of executives in the global marketplace. International Executive Roundtables allow lecturers to speak on real world scenarios and pass valuable research insights on to faculty.
The IIB designates featured lectures by renowned speakers as distinguished lectures: Robert Reynolds Distinguished Lecture (led and hosted by CU Denver's Business School), The Greg and Carol Jemal-Gibson Distinguished Lecture, and the Burton Boothby Distinguished Lecture.

Lecture Overview
Time is money. The global payments industry is becoming more important as we move away from cash to digital payment options. Digital payments offer businesses and consumers distinct advantages such as speed, mobility and global reach. But, what are the new and emerging uses-cases within digital payments and the corresponding challenges faced both domestically and internationally? Join this discussion to learn about the latest digital payment applications at Visa and how they implement and monitor instant payment transactions to improve approval rates and cardholder experience throughout North America and Latin America.
