Uulala, The Blockchain Startup Empowers Underbanked Latinos with Financial Inclusion To Connect The Cash Consumer To The Formal Economy
ONTARIO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / April 28, 2018 / For many people living in North America, mainly the U.S., their first experience with a bank account will happen during their childhood. Many parents will kick-start their children's banking journey by opening an account on their child's behalf to help them gain financial literacy and to learn to save Grandma's birthday card cash.
This early adoption into the traditional banking system has left many North Americans blind to the fact that banking isn't accessible for everyone and that 2 billion adults worldwide are still underbanked or unbanked. With a staggering 23 million of them being Latinos currently living in the U.S.
On Saturday, April 28th, Uulala will host a platform reveal and showcase event at their new office in Ontario California. In attendance will be distinguished members of the Latino community, current, and former government officials, executives from Fortune 1000 companies and local community leaders. The event is a milestone for the blockchain company which has transformed an 8000 square foot office space into a Latino technology incubator as well as showcasing their blockchain based financial services platform and mobile app.
'As you walk through the day I will remember that we have already won. We have come far and fast; we can do more. Today will get us all into another gear. Today we are born in the eyes of many of our contributors and supporters. Today they will remember how proud we are to build Uulala. They will see who we are. They will fall in love with that belief that we can help millions rise from one financial level to another. Today we all rise. Proud of what Uulala has become,' stated Oscar Garcia, CEO, and Co-Founder of Uulala.
