09:15 Plenary Panel Discussion – The Blockchain Horizon beyond Fintech
Since 2012, the Fintech wave has stormed into the VC space and financial industry. Although more than 50bn$ worldwide have been invested in it, its real impact on the financial industry has yet to emerge. Will web-centric services really lead to a radical transformation such as that e-commerce is bringing upon retail or should one wait for Blockchain deployments in years to come? How can banks and insurance companies take into their stride this new wave of change in their business?
