BlockchainTech Congress is a unique platform for exchanging experience and for representatives of all sectors interested in the operation and development of the breaking technology to meet. The event is a place to present examples of its implementation and to talk about the potential, the future and legal-regulatory issues. It is a great occasion to connect and strengthen business relations for all leaders who want to mark the trends of development in the digital world.

What really is blockchain? It’s technology that serves to the sending and storage of information in transactions made in the network. These transactions are sorted in successive blocks of data. Thanks to the BlockchainTech Congress you can find out why this technology was created, for who, if it is safe and how it could influence reality. The gigantic possibilities of blockchain, other than the creation of new values, enliven traditional business, stimulating it to better address the growing needs of modern consumers.

Why is it worth taking part in the BlockchainTech Congress?
• We’re the first large congress dedicated to blockchain technology in this part of Europe.
• Blockchain is a technology which is developing at a remarkable tempo. If we want to compete with the best, we should look for adaptations of this technology to suit our needs.
• Blockchain optimalizes costs and allows you to save huge amounts, because there are no middlemen – the processes are integrated.
• One of the main advantages of blockchain is security. Thanks to cryptography, no-one can break into the system.
• Blockchain will have a huge influence on the shape of the financial sector. Research made by the World Economic Forum has proven that 10% of the world’s GDP will go through blockchain by 2025.
• Blockchain is a huge chance for almost all sectors, which could be completely changed through the ultramodern technology.
• Blockchain technology is unusually transparent thanks to public access to the register.
• Blockchain stimulates innovation, and clients love modern solutions.
• Thanks to blockchain technology, banks can save up to 20 billion dollars by 2022!
