The iconic tech event from Silicon Valley is coming to Europe.
The first blockchain engineering conference built for
reengineering trust in the enterprise.
Chief Scientist, By the Bay. Founder and organizer of leading developer meetups and OSS conferences in the Silicon Valley, partnering with global technology giants such as IBM, Apple, Twitter, Uber, and Salesforce.
«Rethink Trust is the first blockchain engineering conference focusing on replacing the existing trust mechanisms in the enterprise. We show several key verticals where blockchain and Hyperledger solutions are used to re-engineer the trust mechanisms underlying payments, IoT, trading systems, energy, and other.
We look at the trade-offs of such re-engineering — where the efficiencies are obtained, where new risks are created, and how to mitigate them, and what new value is created.»
Some of the ideas you’ll see that are not usually discussed at traditional blockchain expos:
An IBM Distinguished Engineer and CTO Open Technology for IBM, Christopher has been involved in the architecture, design, and engineering of distributed systems for most of his 38+ year career in IT and has been actively engaged in open standards and open source development since 1999.
He has technical responsibility for all of IBM's strategic open source and standards initiatives, including Hyperledger, Open Container Initiative, Cloud Native Computing Foundation, OpenStack, Cloud Foundry, Node.js and Docker. He represents IBM on the Hyperledger Governing Board, is a Maintainer of the Hyperledger Fabric project and chairs the Hyperledger Technical Steering Committee.
Mariana Gomez de la Villa (1979, Mexican nationality) has joined ING in 2015 and is currently the global head of ING’s Blockchain program, with overall responsibility for driving research and development of Distributed Ledger Technology as well as capitalizing on its potential in order to unlock mass-scale value.
Under Mariana’s leadership, the Blockchain program has delivered over 30 proofs of concept in collaboration with the following business areas: payments, trade finance and working capital solutions, financial markets, post-trade, bank treasury, lending, compliance and identity.
Mariana is also responsible for setting up long-term purpose and vision, including the governance of the program within the organization. Mariana is an active leader in global consortia, outlining the strategy and envisioning market landscapes.
Mariana’s accountabilities include the definition of products, services and business models, as well as foresight to business, technology, leadership communities and international stakeholders, including regulators.

This presentation will introduce the audience to Hyperledger, an open source collaborative effort to advance cross-industry blockchain technologies for business. This will cover the goals of the organization and its different projects and activities.The presentation will then focus on Hyperledger Fabric, a modular and flexible blockchain framework design to address the requirements of the business use cases benefiting from the use of blockchain technology. This part will cover the design principles which motived the development of Fabric and which differentiate it from other blockchain technologies. It will introduce the audience to Fabric's overall architecture and process flow, as well as give specific information on how to get start with developing a blockchain application using Fabric.
Anyone can benefit from the first part of the presentation but the second part is much more technical in nature and aimed at giving network admistrators and application developers a good understanding of how a Fabric blockchain network and application function.
Arnaud has been working on standards and open source for over 25 years and has been involved in every aspect of the open technology development process: technical, strategic, political, and legal. Arnaud was editor of several key web specifications including HTML and DOM and was a pioneer of open source with the release of libXpm in 1990. Arnaud is the main representative for IBM at W3C, an elected member of the HyperledgerTechnical Steering Committee, a contributor to Hyperledger Fabric, and a member of the Hyperledger Speakers Bureau.

At our workshops, certified blockchain experts will explain the types and differences of centralized and distributed solutions, including public and private blockchains, and lead participants through the comparison of private blockchains.
The workshops’ facilitators will share real-life implementation of blockchain in enterprises across various industries, Intellectsoft Blockchain Lab’s process of conducting customer workshops, as well as uprising blockchains within modern infrastructure.
Tim has been a СТО in several tech companies which allowed him to gain a deep expertise in product development and embrace a startup nature. Currently he drives technological development of Intellectsoft Blockchain Lab while guiding the innovation efforts of the entire division.

In this workshop, Nick Edmonds, CTO and Co-Founder of Topl, will introduce you their Edda framework. Designed to be deployed as single-use public, permissionless blockchains, Edda incorporates the first implementation of the Ouroboros Genesis consensus algorithm, allows for domain specific smart contracts, and supports complex actor types and attributes.
Leveraging the JVM for its cross-platform capabilities along with the built-in JavaScript runtime environment the Nashorn Engine, this framework takes advantage of the concise structure of Scala in combination with the ability to write smart contracts in JavaScript, one of the most popular programming languages in the world. A blockchain created with the Edda framework can be deployed on nearly every device, with a smart contract language most developers are already familiar with.
Scala’s Akka actor model provides for a highly concurrent and distributed system, important for decentralization and speed when settling transactions within a distributed network. Pattern matching, case classes, and strong typing system within Scala allow the Edda framework to easily create new tokens and digitize assets onto the blockchain. The immutability of functional programming in Scala lends itself well to abstracting data structures used to build blockchains.
Abstracting core components into easy to reason models allows multiple developers or teams to quickly add new features within the framework. Through this session, you will become familiar with the motivations behind a Scala and functional-first blockchain implementation, the architecture of a single-use blockchain, and the steps needed to deploy your own specialized chain.
After solidifying a love for programming in his high school robotics team, Nicholas went on to graduate from the University of Houston with a degree in computer science. His former projects range from computer vision and virtual reality to neural nets and distributed computing. After reading the seminal Bitcoin whitepaper shortly after it was released in 2008, he has kept an eye on the burgeoning cryptocurrency market. Nick now leads technical development for the Topl protocol working with the rest of the technical team to continue pushing the potential of blockchain technology.
