In-depth learning session A - STANDARD
Innovating on the blockchain – how to increase value, streamline process, reduce costs for public and private organisations
Avoiding the hype surrounding blockchain’s potential is near impossible, however this does not mean it is the answer to everything, and it is critical to differentiate between where blockchain technologies will transform current operations, and where the existing process is performing well enough.
Designed for CIOs, CTOs, CEOs and division heads from across industry sectors, this in-depth session has been design to help you identify areas within your organisation that can be improved significantly with blockchain technology – and also those which cannot. It will explore your current operations and will identify how blockchain will create a new way to do things.
In this session, you will learn about:
- Identifying commercial use-cases of the blockchain for your organisation
- Detecting where underlying problems and frictions exist in your organisation that will be alleviated by blockchain technologies
- Exploring new applications and services that could be run on blockchain technologies, and which should not
- Examining the rewards and risks and ascertain whether it is worth proceeding to a proof of concept
- Using blockchain as a tool for innovation across your organisation
- Understanding what would change if you embraced blockchain and how to prepare for this
