To: Louise Anderson From: Jesse Reed Subject: Panel discussion invitation Date: 18 June
Dear Ms. Anderson, Hello. My name is Jesse Reed, and I am one of the organizers of IT Healthlink. IT Healthlink has become one of the UK's most exciting conferences on information technology in healthcare, bringing together hundreds of medical care providers, entrepreneurs, investors, government representatives, and others annually. -[1]-. We are currently seeking speakers and panelists for this year's conference, which will be held in London's Fiore Hall on 5-7 October. The particular session I am contacting you about is an hour-long panel discussion titled "The Next Generation of Health Tech". -[2]-. We have already engaged Clive Minamore, Kwame Obeng, Logan Norwick, and Andrew Earle, four of the industry's most innovative young minds, to participate. However, as you might have realized immediately, there is something missing from that group - a female perspective. So I asked around my network for recommendations, and Harold Kirby said he was very impressed with your speech at Health Liverpool last year. -[3]-. After watching the video of it that is available online, I am too. It would be an honor if you would join our panel to share your inventive ideas with our attendees. If you are interested, all you need to do at this stage is respond to this e-mail with your affirmative answer and, for our Web site, a professional headshot and your official job title. I would send you the speaking agreement with all of the details of the event by the end of this month. -[4]-. Alternatively, if you have any questions or concerns, you can reply to this e-mail or call me at 0207043 5214 during business hours. I hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely, Jesse Reed |

Auckland Business News (19 February) - Christine Redman recently found herself unable to pay for the iced latte she had ordered at her favorite coffee shop-even though she had plenty of cash. "They'd made the switch to electronic payments a few weeks before," Ms. Redman explained. "But that day, I forgot to bring my debit card. It was embarrassing." The coffee shop, Seeley's Beans, is one of several New Zealand retailers that have stopped accepting cash at their stores. Supporters of the trend say that electronic payments have benefits like faster transactions, error-free record-keeping, and less handling of potentially-unsanitary bills and coins. Seeley's Beans spokesperson Sharon Wright said, "It was an easy choice, frankly." Consumers, however, are not convinced. Although there has been a steady move toward using cards and apps instead of paper money, many still prefer to use cash or at least to have the option of doing so. "For me, it's about privacy. I wouldn't go to a cashless store, because I don't like the credit card company knowing everything I buy," said Auckland citizen Chad Williams. Similar consumer resistance has led some city governments in the United States to prohibit businesses from going cashless. Retail analyst Sang-Wook Jung believes that could happen here as well, but not right away. "At this point, there are only a few cashless places, so it's not a big inconvenience. But if a lot of stores start to switch over, we may see a backlash too." Have you visited a cashless store? Tell us about it in the comments!
