Digital technologies let people who’ve never met do business across borders and continents in an instant. But how can they trust one another without relying on bureaucracy and middlemen? How can security, identity, and ownership be guaranteed while still operating at the speed of the Internet?

Blockchains, or distributed ledgers, may provide the answer.

MIT Technology Review in collaboration with MIT Media Lab Digital Currency Initiative invite you to a one-day conference examining the technology, ethics, and impact of blockchains.
Meet pioneers in this emerging field
Learn about the technology to gain business advantage
Separate fact from hype, and what’s imminent from what’s far off

Our 2019 program will explore:
» The strengths and weaknesses of the underlying technology
» Lessons learned from early blockchain projects, and how the most promising new initiatives are attempting to transform key global industries
» How legal and regulatory environments around the world are adapting to the arrival of cryptocurrencies
» The potential for blockchain to address pressing social challenges, from expanding access to financial services to tracking war crimes
