According to Don Tapscott and Alex Tapscott, there is one form of technology that will have a greater impact on the world economy than self-driving cars, solar energy, or even artificial intelligence. It’s called the blockchain. Blockchain technology is a simple protocol that bypasses intermediaries and allows for anonymous and secure transactions that are permanently recorded on a public ledger. So why should you care about this? Blockchain has the power to reshape the world of business and transform the old order of human affairs for the better.
Join our speakers as they launch their #1 Globe and Mail Bestselling book, Blockchain Revolution: How the Technology Behind Bitcoin is Changing Money, Business, and the World, and discuss the second generation of the internet and its impact on the world, and the latest development in the blockchain space, the decentralized autonomous organization (DAO).
