Blockchain is a distributed public network that creates an immutable historical ledger of transaction in an efficient, transparent and secured way. It has the potential to revolutionize the way we look at the global finance economy as a whole, with its applications ranging from trading and payments, to security and legal ownership. It not only captures the attention of banks, but also exchanges, insurers and government who are looking into Blockchain to reshape daily operations, reduce costs and improve transparency.

In this 2-day conference, BLOCKCON 2017 will be expecting more than 1,000 global Blockchain innovators and professionals of diverse backgrounds -- including regulators, entrepreneurs, investors and financial industry executives.

The engagement topics revolve around Blockchain's rising opportunities and challenges, regulation and collaboration, as well as its application in finance and beyond. BLOCKCON 2017 will also feature a series of interactive panel discussion sessions, fireside chats and live demos that will probe deeper into what it takes for Blockchain solutions to be successful, and how this emerging technology can be applied for data integrity, trust and accessibility.

"Blockchain has the potential to redefine numerous value chains, exchange platforms and business processes. We observe fascinating "proof of concepts" being tested and user cases being developed not only within the financial service industry, but across other major industries and public sectors. Some of the key themes, topics and applications that are being explored are related to identity, authentication, fraud, record keeping, "smart" self-executing contracts and various forms of transfer of digital assets, value and data," said Gerben Visser, Co-Founder of The Singapore FinTech Consortium Pte Ltd.


"We believe BLOCKCON 2017 will provide a unique knowledge exchange platform, facilitate partnership opportunities across the Blockchain ecosystem, as well as educate financial participants and stakeholders on the potential applications," said Paul Wan, Managing Director of UBM Exhibition Singapore Pte Ltd.
