Lesley was at the Scottish currency group conference and like most of the audience, was struck by Dr Jon Egilsson's contribution. He warned against handing over control of a new Scottish currency by joining the euro - still a mandatory condition for new members of the European Union. saying that despite the mess Iceland landed in 2008, it was having its own currency that allowed the country to spring back.

Jon is the chairman and co-founder of Monerium and former chairman of the supervisory board of the Icelandic Central Bank. In addition to co-founding four software companies, he has also served as an adjunct professor at Reykjavik University, as a lecturer at the University of Iceland in the economics and engineering departments and as a visiting scholar at Columbia University in New York.

Jon holds a Ph.D. degree in Economics and a master's degree in Engineering.
