Is Blockchain technology worth the investment for IoT solutions providers to make a move?

About Event

There’s no doubt, the adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) is accelerating across major industries, including government, manufacturing, and consumer sectors. Major concerns persist about expanding security attack vectors along the data path for these emerging solutions. Considerations around the use of blockchain technology continue, to make the IoT more practical and trustworthy, due to its secure and reliable node-based architecture. It’s clear that blockchain will become the focus point to secure IoT-connected devices in the coming years. Consequently, IoT solutions and service providers are considering their adoption and investment move into blockchain technology.

Our speakers will begin the event by exploring security as it relates to the smart devices we use in our day-to-day life. Why blockchain could be a qualified solution to ensure security in IoT deployments, how blockchain works, and its benefits. Our representatives will also explore multiple use cases to communicate how IoT technologies can leverage blockchain methodology. Moreover, how different industries – from agriculture, education, to pharmaceutical – can use blockchain will also be discussed.

The event will end up with an interactive session where the speakers and attendees can have an open discussion on this topic.
