** Exclusive Event for CXO's and Sr. IT Executives **
Facilitators:
Ryan Hicke, Senior Vice President, SEI Investments
Sanjay Sharma, Chief Technology Officer, SEI Investments
Please join Ryan, Sanjay and invited guests for an interactive discussion on Blockchain, one of the most talked about technology trend of 2016 which has attracted more than $2+ billion investments in last 18+ months.
Trust is the foundation for all the businesses involving multiple counterparties. Since the dawn of modern world, such trust is established/ensured by regulators, government agencies, consortiums, etc. to carry out business activities (e.g. asset transfer, buy, sell) across various entities spanning across multiple geographies i.e. ‘Institutionalized Trust’. Blockchain can enable the required trust through technology resulting in disintermediation of several central entities across various industries responsible for ‘Trust’.
Though the Blockchain technology is in nascent stage and adoption may take some time but the payoff could be profound. Like the Internet reinvented communication, Blockchain may similarly disrupt transactions, contracts, and trust—the underpinnings of business, government, and society. Considering significant potential implications this needs serious attention as you define/refine your organization’s IT strategy. SEI has been on the forefront of Blockchain research and have been actively participating in various Blockchain forums. Ryan and Sanjay will focus the Blockchain discussion on the following areas to share their learning:
• Key business and technology concepts of Blockchain.
• Current trends, expected benefits, challenges and broader implications.
• Who are the key players and consortiums?
• What SEI is doing and suggested Use Case/POC/Pilot/Production approach.
• Reference information.
