THE WORLD’S LARGEST
ENTREPRENEURSHIP CONFERENCE
Converge. Create. Elevate.
BLOCKCHAIN & FINTECH - HALL C
DAY 1
Enterprise Blockchain arrived in 2019 and is already generating significant value across many industries. Momentum is building and Gartner forecasts $1.5 trillion in new value creation in the enterprise blockchain space over the next 5 years.
Fintech is a key area for adoption, with leading use cases such as instant international payments, real-time settlement, and digital assets. Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), fiat-backed stable coins and cryptocurrencies have the potential to usher in significant changes in the global monetary system and financial markets. These transformations are dependent on forward-thinking government regulation and policy to provide the right legal framework.
We're excited to present a top-tier line up of prominent fintech, blockchain and government leaders who will share their expert insights and perspectives. Be part of the experience and engage with these powerful and thought provoking discussions.
