ABOUT THE CONTENT
While cryptocurrencies take most of the hype, Blockchain has potential to offer a new way for enterprises and customers to transact. Enterprises are exploring how to use the underlying distributed ledger technology to achieve business objectives.
[push h=10]
Microsoft, IBM, HPE, Oracle, SAP and others are offering Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS) to help enterprises by providing an architecture, infrastructure and resources to maintain and deploy Blockchain initiatives.
[push h=10]
Our industry panel will discuss lessons learned, experiences and recommendations in an informal fashion without recordings, press, or social media hampering our exchange of knowledge. We’ll examine:
[push h=5]

• Why the potential impact of blockchain is significant across multiple industries including banking, insurance, healthcare, supply chain logistic and beyond
• What is the opportunity for Blockchain to help create more efficient ecosystems for organizations to partner together?
• How can Blockchain reduce cost and time related to reconciliations and disputes resulting in simplified operations?
• What are the risks of a Blockchain network being run in a single cloud provider? What are the alternatives?
• What new business models may be created by using Blockchain?
• What are the enterprise specific challenges to implementing Blockchain including auditing/logging, enterprise integration, monitoring, regulatory, and authentication/authorization/accounting?
