Jim Carroll delivered the keynote address at GlobalExchange 2012 &#8212; the annual customer conference of Pollard Banknote, one of the world&#8217;s largest printers of lottery tickets &#8212; in Las Vegas in early 2012, speaking to senior executives from throughout the global lottery industry. The talk, &#8220;Think Big, Start Small, Scale Fast,&#8221; explored the profound implications of the coming reinvention of cash &#8212; the rapid emergence of mobile payments, digital wallets, and contactless transactions &#8212; for an industry whose retail model was built around the physical point-of-sale lottery ticket. Carroll challenged lottery executives to think seriously about what happened to ticket sales when cash itself became a thing of the past &#8212; and to be among the first in their industry to build the digital bridges that would carry the lottery experience into an all-digital retail environment. The talk reflected Carroll&#8217;s broader theme during this period: that the disruption of cash was not a distant scenario but an accelerating reality that would reshape retail, payments, and consumer behavior within a decade.
