The London Blockchain Conference is almost here. The event, which will be held at the Queen Elizabeth II Centre, will start on May 31 and will bring together some of the world’s foremost thought leaders in Bitcoin and blockchain. It will delve into how blockchain is transforming multiple industries, from supply chain and gaming to government and enterprise applications and more.

While blockchain adoption is increasing globally, most businesses still shy away from the technology, fearing they lack the technical ability to integrate it. At the conference, some of the industry’s key thought leaders and innovators would break down how any business can leverage blockchain to cut costs, increase efficiency and create a robust business network.

In his presentation, Brendan Lee will talk about how any business can leverage Bitcoin. Lee is the founder of the application platform development company Elas Digital. Ela’s co-founder Mohammad Jaber will also take to the stage on day 1 to talk about how businesses can combat counterfeiting with blockchain. Counterfeiting is becoming a global scourge, with some studies estimating it to be as high as $4.5 trillion annually, larger than Germany’s economy.

For enterprise and public applications, the scalability of a blockchain network is critical. With millions of people served daily, these applications would grind to a halt if deployed on a network with scaling bottlenecks.

Britevue co-founder Connor Murray will join IPv6 Forum President Latif Ladid in a discussion about blockchain scalability and why it is important for applications aimed at the masses. E-Smitty, the music producer who has worked with artists such as Future and Kool G Rap, will also be part of the panel. Smitty has built Distro Mint, a non-fungible token (NFT) and music distribution platform, on BSV.

The wave of blockchain enterprise adoption

Day 2 of the London Blockchain Conference will dive deeper into enterprise blockchain applications. Giovanni Franzese will take the stage to talk about the dangers, promises and successes of enterprise blockchain. Franzese worked at Ericsson for over three decades, and was charged with blockchain development at the Swedish IT giant.

CoinGeek’s Becky Liggero will moderate a panel on how blockchain-powered trust helps businesses maintain an affinity for their brands with their customers. She will be joined by VX Technologies President Justin Pauly and Kirsty Barany-Gibson, the host of Access New York.

Paul Rajchgod will delve into the wave of enterprise blockchain adoption in his presentation on Day 3. Rajchgod is the managing director of private equity at Ayre Ventures and has spearheaded the funding of dozens of blockchain startups.

For business and public applications, a key challenge is data silos that limit efficiency. All other businesses have their own silo of customer data collected over the years. Even within one company, data fragmentation prevents one department from exploiting data held by another department. In addition to reducing efficiency, data silos are also a gift for hackers.

Building interoperable databases through blockchain to replace data silos will be among the topics discussed at the conference.

The three-day event will feature sessions on many other topics, including NFTs, Web3, digital asset regulations, tokenization, central bank digital currencies, decentralized identity and more. It will feature over 100 speakers and 24 hours of sessions and panel discussions, with Dr. Craig Wright among those taking to the stage.
