Since 2018 we hold every September in Montevideo the Blockchain Summit event with a great call and very prominent speakers.
The 3rd Edition has touched us in times of pandemic... and has made us redouble our creativity, our passion and our enthusiasm. And in addition to many new features, there has been a fantastic evolution. Our event has become mainly VIRTUAL, adding also a face-to-face modality that will be out of the ordinary and will include an updated sanitary protocol.
We are also showing a "rebranding" which is part of our evolution. Now Blockchain Summit UY is ...BLOCKCHAIN SUMMIT GLOBAL. With a lot of ambition and vocation the 3rd Edition 2020 will be a global event.
We can confirm that on Thursday 3rd and Friday 4th September 2020 for the 3rd year running, from a leading TV studio, we will be presenting an incredible agenda with world class SPEAKERS delivering fantastic lectures, unique workshops and making up amazing panels.
Blockchain will be the big topic and will work as a trigger, adding also all the associated technologies that are generating current use cases, innovation and evolution, in a direct path to the Revolution 4.0.
As an example, we will have presentations on AI, IoT, 5G, XR, and Quanting computing.
During the event we will talk about DEFI, FINTECH, CYBERSECURITY, STABLECOINS and also the LEGAL underpinning of Blockchain initiatives. We will have the main platforms, launch of new versions, active mining projects, and a lot of action in relation to the main cryptocurrencies, their price and opportunities from the point of view of the most prominent traders.
It will be an opportunity to listen to keynote presentations on developments, innovations, legislation, public policies, real use cases and real success stories.
This year we have planned to hold the event in a leading TV studio, from where we will broadcast in an agile and professional way to the whole world. Participants will be able to network in virtual meeting rooms and participate in AMA (Ask me Anything) sessions with keynote speakers.
