McLean, VA (PRWEB) March 03, 2015 -- Women’s Network in Electronic Transactions (W.net), the premier organization dedicated to women in payments, has announced that Lisa Falzone, co-founder and chief executive officer of iPad Point-of-Sale (POS) company Revel Systems POS, will speak during the organization’s tenth anniversary celebration and SuperLINC event. Falzone, considered one of the most talented women in payments, will headline the event, which includes fabulous networking opportunities for women and men alike. SuperLINC 2015 will be held on Tuesday, March 31, from 1:30-4:30 p.m. at Moscone Center South in Gateway Room 102. SuperLINC 2015 takes place immediately before the Electronic Transactions Association (ETA) TRANSACT 15 opening reception also at Moscone Center South.
“Lisa Falzone is a great role model and is an inspiration for women in the payments industry,” says Linda Rossetti, W.net president and president of Bluestone Payments.“I am thrilled that Lisa will be able to take part in our tenth anniversary celebration and SuperLINC event to talk about her experiences along the path to success, as well as to give those attending a glimpse into the future of payments,” adds Rossetti.
Lisa Falzone is the 29-year-old CEO and co-founder of iPad point of sale (POS Systems) company Revel Systems. A graduate of Stanford University, Lisa has been pivotal in turning the often “old school” perception of POS on its head. She has raised over $115 million in funding for Revel and the company currently has more than 250 employees worldwide. The iPad POS system that Lisa co-created regularly beats out established competitors such as MICROS Systems/Oracle, NCR and Aloha, and has sold hundreds of millions of units since it came out of beta in 2011. Lisa’s achievements as a young female entrepreneur have been recognized through numerous prestigious awards such as Forbes ’30 Under 30’, Business Insiders “30 Most Important Women Under 30 In Tech” and San Francisco Business Times ’40 Under 40.’
Carol Grunberg, head of partner management for Google Payments and W. net board member, will conduct an informal “fireside chat” with Falzone. A spirited dialog will cover how Falzone got started in business, her role as a disruptor in the payments space, the path she’s taken to obtain funding, and what it’s like to be a woman in the male-dominated payments industry and Silicon Valley startup worlds, among other topics.
