"Exploring Blockchain in the Cultural Sector" Conference
Blockchain is an open, decentralised and distributed technology, which is often associated to cryptocurrencies. However, blockchain is more than a digital money infrastructure and it can be used to addresses issues on authenticity and ownership, as well as support the creation of value in the digital domain. Therefore, blockchain holds the potential to be a disruptive technology. This one-day conference aims to critically examine to what extent blockchain might be a disruptive technology for the creative and cultural sectors.
