Blockchain is one of the key technologies of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR), poised to have a significant impact on the way business is done in the years to come. The World Economic Forum predicts that by 2027, around 10% of global GDP will be stored on blockchain.

It’s time to examine how this technology can facilitate a new era of global transparency and inclusion; blockchain for social good.

In this panel, we look at projects using blockchain technology to empower women in developing countries, help refugees recover their assets and identities after war, protect against pharmaceutical fraud and much more. This panel will also discuss challenges and solutions to empower the next generation of blockchain leaders.

Presented by:
Moderator: Jenna Pilgrim
Panelists: Ceit Butler, Bassem El Remesh, Alishba Imran and Maria Toorpakai Wazir
at Digifest 2019.
