About this event

Maybe you have heard or read about blockchain in the news, or from your company if they are implementing a blockchain project. You might have heard about cryptocurrencies, mining, or ICOs and wondered what they mean.

Organisations from MAS to Microsoft are launching various blockchain projects, and this seemingly cryptic technology looks to be as many describes, a growing tsunami in the tech world. Reports such as World Economic Forums', predicts that 10% of global GDP will be stored on blockchain-related technology by 2025.

What is blockchain and why is the world getting so excited about it? What does this mean for you and what are the ways in which your industry might change with blockchain technology? What are some of the real world uses for blockchain? How can you take part in this technology wave?

This talk attempts to answer some of those questions and give you a high level overview of blockchain and Bitcoin, a little on its history, an understanding on the technology behind it and why it has the potential to disrupt our fundamental systems. It also aims to equip you with the some of the jargons around the technology to facilitate your future learnings and blockchain conversations.
