COVID-19 accelerated adoption of digital tools over the last year and a half - contactless and digital forms of payment in particular. As digital adoption of financial services continues to expand, there is potential for channels that are increasingly digitally integrated with consumers' financial lives to play a role in inclusive financial opportunity, consistent with their business goals. The scale of the challenge is large, and cross-sector collaboration is key to address it meaningfully and make lasting change.

Commonwealth has identified three areas for inclusive innovation that hold much promise for expanding financial opportunity for all. Contactless payments, mass transit, and telecommunications, while vastly different industries, all hold much potential for expanding financial security across America.

Join [Commonwealth](https://buildcommonwealth.org/) and experts from industries like transit, telecommunications and contactless payments on July 15 for a discussion about how these “new channels” are creating opportunities for financial innovation and inclusion and what you can do.
