Hosted at the AsiaWorld – Expo in Hong Kong, blockchain series of conferences CHAIN 2020 will gather top industry experts on January 15 to produce a comprehensive source of blockchain knowledge and help enhance mass adoption of the new technology in the region<\/strong><\/p>\n

As the global economy evolves and the world enters a new decade, new technologies are becoming increasingly necessary for us. Among these tech we can find blockchain, a distributed ledger technology reshaping the world as we know it now but still quite unknown for the wider public. That is exactly the purpose of CHAIN 2020, a series of educational conferences whose main objective is to promote blockchain in the Asian region, its multiple applications for different areas of society and shed some light on this revolutionary technology.<\/p>\n

With the emergence of blockchain and other technologies, the world is becoming more united, forming a truly decentralised network. Unfortunately, many people are left behind due to the relatively low level of adoption of concepts such as blockchain, cryptocurrency, or DLT. There is where Chain 2020 enters as it is launching a series of educational conferences promoting blockchain in the Asian region, and aiming to become one of the key players locally and on a global scale.<\/p>\n

These conferences will be broken down into 4 categories: Blockchain Technology; Future of Money; Future of FinTech and AI & Big Data<\/strong>. All of them have been carefully studied to give a better picture of what this and other new technologies can offer in the near future while following the event\u2019s main missions to: \u201cproduce a comprehensive source of blockchain knowledge, enhancing mass adoption of the new technology in the region.Become the most influential and mind-captivating platform aiming to create connections and partnerships that will have a long-lasting impact on the industry. And advocate blockchain initiatives in ASIA and support mass adoption of the technology to advance business, science, and society.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
