Geneva Annual Blockchain Congress 2020 | Palexpo SA | 20 January 2020 | Palexpo, Route François-Peyrot 30, 1218 Le Grand-Saconnex – Switzerland

This will encompass a vast array of topical questions and debates, and is a must for anyone involved in the world of Blockchain. It is no coincidence that the Congress is being held in Geneva. Dedicated to advancing the achievement of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the city of Geneva promotes high-quality education, decent work conditions, economic growth, responsible consumption and healthy and robust institutions. Not only are these elements of society continuously evolving, but each one of them is hugely affected by innovative technological developments.
