What happens when innovation means life or death for your company?
In this first of a two-part series of innovation at Mastercard, guests Jennifer Marriner and Sherri Haymond describe the ongoing innovations in their divisions: Global Acceptance Solutions and Global Partnerships, respectively. As customers and retailers alike continue to change how they move money, Mastercard must not only keep up with them, but innovate so deeply that they actually have new tech ready BEFORE payment preferences evolve.
