Seminar Agenda
9.00am to 12.15pm
Introducing Distributed Ledgers
This session is an introduction to distributed ledgers: what they are, why they are useful and how they can be applied to business and financial processes. The outcome of this session is for non-technical professionals to be able to differentiate between the various forms of distributed ledgers available, how and why we have them and what they can potentially be used for both now and in the future. Delivered through lectures, case studies, discussions and demonstrations and will cover the following important topics:
- Introducing Money, Assets & Ledgers What is Bitcoin, and how did it come to be? Answering fundamental questions and explaining key facts
- Understanding Blockchain Technology Examining Blockchain from a non-technical perspective and assessing use cases for businesses and financial institutions
12:15am – 02:00pm
Lunch & Zuhr Prayer
2.00pm to 5.00pm
Exploring Crypto Assets
This session will introduce the characteristics, uses and applications of crypto assets and currencies. The outcome of this session is for everyone in the room to own some form of cryptoasset, but more importantly, for them to understand where it is stored and why it has been stored that way.
This will be a very hands-on session and will allow participants to gain practical experience of the application of crypto assets. Half of the session will be guided through presentations with the other half being spent actively using and exploring Blockchain technology through crypto-currency transactions.
- Blockchain Generations From digital currencies to open assets & smart contracts; what can be done today and how can these tools be applied?
- Wallets From paper, to brains through hardware or software - what are the differences? What are the potential uses for such applications in businesses and finance?
ConclusionWe’ll undertake a quick review of what we have covered throughout the day and what can be taken back to yourorganization in terms of real ideas and initiatives.
Optional Extended Workshop For those seeking to acquire a deeper and more practical understanding of the underlying cryptography and how it is used by smart contracts to generate tokens, we also provide an optional second day, which is separately bookable. This interactive day will address technology issues in more detail.
9.00am to 12.15pm
Understanding Distributed Technology
This session first recaps the technicalities covered in the first day, providing an opportunity for more engaged conversations that are delivered through lectures, case studies, discussions and demonstrations that will cover the following important topics:
- Cryptography From hashes to encryption and key generation - demystifying the technology from a non-technical perspective and assessing important security features
- Distributing Data Examine the various ways blockchains can use or be used to store data
