San Diego – September 7, 2018 – RippleNami, Inc., a provider of blockchain data visualization technology, announced today that its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Jaye Connolly-LaBelle will speak at the Bank of America Merrill Lynch Luncheon, on September 7, 2018, in San Diego, California.

As a panelist alongside executives from San Diego Gas and Electric, Perfect Bar, and PRA Destination Management Company, Connolly-LaBelle will speak about global women empowerment, reveal the history and horsepower behind RippleNami’s technology platform and how its converting Africa’s development challenges into prosperity and furthering its sovereign powers.

Did you know: in developing nations, girls spend six hours every day, gathering water and vital provisions rather than learning in school or working to support their families? Or, how about women farmers suffering from a multitude of market and cultural disadvantages that stem from a lack of land size and ownership tenure; authority on crop selections; market pricing indicators; and accessibility to capital resources necessary to fund and scale operations?

RippleNami understands that by empowering these deserving women and children, the world will experience rapid transformation.  RippleNami’s mission is simple: connect the globe’s unconnected citizens with identifications, resources, and services essential to survive and thrive by leveraging their proprietary technology and the mass adoption of mobile phones.
