NPO’S Adress Compliance
Non-profit organisations across the Cayman Islands learnt valuable lessons at Wednesday’s R3 conference, where regulatory bodies gave presentations on how NPOs can strengthen their framework and ensure transparency, so they do not fall victim to money laundering or terrorist financing — which could potentially ruin the reputation of the Cayman Islands.

Tech pros think Cayman could be Caribbean’s ‘Silicon Valley’
Cayman could become the Caribbean’s hi-tech hub, the organisers of an event designed to promote computing have said.
Bayo Sodimu, a volunteer at the ‘Hackathon’ event held on 10 May at Cayman Enterprise City’s Signal House, said the event was designed to attract people new to computer skills and those who had some experience and wanted to learn more, as well as benefit the community.
“For me personally, I think Cayman has huge potential and could potentially be something like the Silicon Valley of the Caribbean and I believe that with my whole heart,” he said.
Sodimu, a software engineer, said Cayman had a deep pool of computing expertise drawn from around the world, plus a population that had “determination, curiosity and an interest in building”.
