This July, influential members of the blockchain community will converge at Asia’s most influential blockchain conference—Asia Blockchain Summit 2020 (ABS2020) virtually.
Now in its third year, the summit will take place on July 15 – 19, 2020, and feature an impressive speaker roster. The five-day conference, backed by Taiwan’s National Development Council, is expected to draw more than 500 speakers and more than a million attendees from over 50 different countries.
Asia Blockchain Summit Chief Executive Officer Andrew Fai says the event aims to bring together some of the most eminent figures in blockchain from academia, industry, and government to discuss the mainstream adoption of blockchain technology.
“Real-world adoption remains largely uncharted territory. In a time of uncertainty as well as possibility like this, we hope this year’s event can be a showcase and catalyst that not only inform but also inspire and motivate attendees to do great things and venture into unknown space with the decentralized technologies,” he said.
Commander Chris Hadfield, the most famous astronaut since Neil Armstrong, will be one of the celebrities on the summit’s star-studded speaker lineup. Embodying the same spirit of exploration and adventure that drives the industry forward, Hadfield’s speech on leadership and sharing of the stories of his time aboard the International Space Station is set to be a centerpiece of ABS2020, offering attendees valuable insights into leadership. His speech is scheduled for 9:30 am GMT+8 July 17. Be sure to check it out!
