Management EVENT OVERVIEW te Dear colleague, Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Crown Prince of Dubai, announced a strategic plan to improve efficiency by shifting 100 percent of government transactions to a blockchain network by 2020, encouraging paperless transactions in line with the Dubai future agenda. As a result of this, a number of Middle Eastern companies have made substantial progress on understanding the opportunities of application and are looking for effective strategies of implementing and integrating blockchain technology within their company. Whilst postponing investment in blockchain until initiatives in this area are well understood in the region, waiting for a stable state may risk your business missing out on vital opportunities and a competitive advantage. With this in mind, we are pleased to announce that we are hosting the inaugural Blockchain Middle East Forum (25-26 September 2017, Dubai, UAE) which will bring together world-class experts, professionals and academics to explore the potential of blockchain technology and how it can be applied in the Middle East. What can you expect from the Blockchain Middle East Forum: * Blockchain revolution: Learn how blockchain is reshaping the Middle Eastern business market and how your business can stay ahead of the game * Building a blockchain culture: Recognise how to build ecosystems of open innovation within your organisation to reduce conflict and uncertainty * Learning from across the globe: Learn from international experts from the Netherlands and Ireland and discover how they are successfully adopting blockchain within their organisations * The value of blockchain: Understand the importance of assessing the economic viability of blockchain solutions alongside your current business process to increase overall ROI * Creating the right path for your business: Assess blockchain technologies and identify the least disruptive blockchain adoption path that will support business growth and expansion of your business network * Shaping tomorrow: Discuss how the Middle Eastern market will respond to the introduction of blockchain and learn what the future holds This event is a must if you want to learn how to create a better future for your organisation. | look forward to welcoming you in Dubai in September!
