Blockchain: Rewiring Governance Conference 2018

The Conference will be held at the University of Cambridge Judge Business School.

Blockchain has been framed as a piece of technology with the potential to fundamentally reshape our world over the course of the coming decades. Most important of all, blockchain technology could challenge the way that we act and govern ourselves as a society.

This conference aims to explore the relationship between blockchain and governance, offering a space not only for the consideration of how governmental processes may be altered by blockchain technology, but also how governments may in turn shape this technology.

Speakers include Eva Kaili MEP, Martin Köppelmann, Co-Founder, CEO Gnosis, Garrick Hileman, Research Fellow. Cambridge Judge Business School.
