AZHOS Supply-Chain Innovation Day 2019
Eventinformationen
Beschreibung
On February 21, 2019, the Frankfurt School Blockchain Center and AZHOS AG jointly organize a half-day event to explore new business models at the intersection of the big two topics supply-chain management and finance made possible by blockchain. Together with thought leaders from the areas of finance, chemical industry, Internet of Things and blockchain, we will explore which business models will be enabled by distributed ledger technology and blockchain in specific.
The focus will be laid on the one hand on practical real-world examples within the chemical industry. On the other hand, a focus will be laid on the implications of these new technologies on the financial ecosystem. The highly efficient blockchain platforms will play a crucial role in improving industry interoperability with new business models, across verticals. The goal is to sensitize participants of the event for industry-connecting use-cases made possible by blockchain technology.
To design the future of your business with blockchain, you need to think beyond proof of concept, wherein the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence powered by sensor, software and services provides end-to-end solutions, across the spectrum of physical, digital and virtual assets.
