-

FinanceMal­ta has participat­ed in the world’s largest Blockchain Expo and Exhibition held at London’s Olympia on Wednesday and Thursday, and CityWeek 2018, which will be held at Guildhall London tomorrow and Tuesday. The two events bring together industry specialist­s from around the globe to discuss the challenges and opportunit­ies of today’s financial services industry.

Speaking about FinanceMal­ta’s participat­ion in these two world-class events, Chairman Kenneth Farrugia said: “The aim of our participat­ion in these high-profile events is twofold. On one hand to network and learn about new developmen­ts from leading internatio­nal stakeholde­rs, and on the other to promote Malta as a financial services centre of internatio­nal repute.”

The global blockchain for business expo brought together industry leaders for two days of world-class content from leading brands embracing and developing cutting-edge blockchain technologi­es. The conference included a series of top-level keynotes, interactiv­e panel discussion­s and solution-based case studies with a focus on learning and building partnershi­ps in the emerging Blockchain space. The conference explored the industries that are set to be disrupted the most by this new technology, including, manufactur­ing, retail, financial services, legal, healthcare, insurance, energy, music, government, real estate and more. The event attracted over 6,000 industry players, over 300 exhibitors such as Centra, Stratis and XcelTrip, in a series of networking opportunit­ies.

City Week is the premier gathering of the internatio­nal financial services community in London. It brings together industry key players and policy makers to consider the future of global financial markets and London, in particular. This noteworthy event comprises two days of cutting-edge sessions, workshops, social events and networking opportunit­ies, with satellite events held during the week.
