Please join us at CSIS for an expert panel discussion examining the applications of blockchain technology in developing economies. We will explore challenges and opportunities for blockchain technology to deliver development impact.

Blockchain technology-- a free, secure, distributed online ledger-- has the potential to be one of the most important development innovations of the 21st Century. While the full scope of its application is still being determined, developing countries are already using blockchain technology to help citizens send and receive remittances, improve land title registration, and extend credit to people outside of the traditional financial system

This event is made possible by general support to CSIS.
