FinTech and the Future of Finance with Blockchain

IE Business School presents, in partnership with Asia Select, Inc. and ZMG Ward Howell, this captivating event on "FinTech and the Future of Finance with Blockchain"

Blockchain and ´distributed ledger´ initiatives have taken the financial services sector by storm. This emerging technology is enabling incumbent banks and financial market infrastructures, as well as new players, to redesign legacy operations, in order to make systems and processes more efficient, challenging existing business models. 

Join us as we cover the core primitives of blockchain technology (distribution, encryption, consensus, privacy), and review how the financial institutions can benefit from these innovations. 

Additionally, we will be discussing the types of talent currently in demand and the direction as the FinTech sector grows. You will learn how companies attract these talents, and how one can position himself to be a key player in the market. 

Through our partnership with Asia Select, Inc. and AMG Ward Howell, you will discover IE's innovative education for lifelong learning. You will find out more about our programs that utilize a technology-based learning ecosystem that trains current and future leaders to make positive global change.
