Blockchain is an ecosystem where Business, Computer Science, Economics, Law, and whatnot meet.
The message. In spite of all the hype behind the technology, the industry and academia are basically following different approaches to address the same problem—of tamper-proof distributed databases (a.k.a., ledgers). Experience shows that there is no pure black and white, and thus it is wise for both rivals to learn from each other and join forces.
The aim. Educate people and bring researchers and engineers from academia, industry, and freelancers to sit together on the same table and try converge to the best of the technology.
Target audience. Chain-in is optimal to establish a comprehensive knowledge on Blockchains. Chain-in includes talks that are suitable for the general public and other more technical ones. This is awesome to educate Blockchain enthusiasts and beginners, to get them in touch with experts, and to help academics ramp up and see bright ideas already evolving in industry. The event is also great opportunity to meet business people and companies willing to enter the Blockchain endeavour or looking up their potential.
Target Speakers. Any interesting talk related to blockchains or Cryptocurrencies as long as it really educates people. Bellow you can see some of the subjects that will be covered—but that are not limited to.
