One of the\u00a0pioneers in the Blockchain landscape,\u00a0<\/span>Kelcey Gosserand<\/a>\u00a0will be a speaker at the event.\u00a0Take advantage and discover in this exclusive interview her expertise\u00a0in Blockchain-related marketing and communication strategy.\u00a0<\/span>Don\u2019t miss out on the interview!<\/p>\n

\"\"– Could you please briefly explain what is the principle on which blockchain is based on? <\/strong><\/p>\n

The principle behind blockchain is to create a trustless system that does not require a third-party intermediary. The power returns to the people.<\/p>\n

– A growing number of financial services are using this system to introduce innovations such as smart bonds and smart contracts What are the main impacts that Blockchain technology can or will have in financial services? <\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s really too early to suggest what the main impacts of blockchain technology are within the financial sector. The technology is still in its infancy. Clearly, smart contracts offer the capacity to revolutionize any number of traditional processes, and as technologists and businesses craft new and existing uses of this technology, it will just be a matter of keeping pace with innovation.<\/p>\n

– What do you think are the potential barriers to the implementation of blockchain and distributed ledger technology?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The tech isn\u2019t ready. There are huge knowledge gaps. There are already legacy systems in place that work.<\/p>\n

– There are some blockchain startups focusing on increasing financial inclusion. How can blockchain impact regions where the unbanked and the underbanked represent a large percentage of the population?<\/strong><\/p>\n

You don\u2019t need the blockchain to increase financial inclusion; in fact, some existing startups are working to solve this problem without utilizing a blockchain solution. As the technology matures, blockchain could provide a more secure and transparent solution.<\/p>\n

– What are your expectations for FINNOSUMMIT Miami?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I am looking forward to meeting with diverse founders who are furthering blockchain initiatives and expanding the dialogue on the possibilities of this technology. Miami is always a great time as well!<\/p>\n
