We all know blockchain technology powers Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, but its applications move far beyond just finance... 
We'll start with a general overview across several industry fields where blockchain is already being applied, discuss a particular case where simplicity leads to complexity (and vice versa). The three main considerations for blockchain use will follow. 
Then, you'll hear <A HREF="https://track-back.co/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Trackback</A> story. Their vision was to create a fully transparent end to end traceability solution, so anyone, anywhere can see the life cycle and provenance of the food they’re eating, the garment they’re wearing, or the pharmaceuticals they're consuming. TrackBack allows businesses & producers to build applications on top of our core technology stack which creates transparency like never before.  You'll see a live demo of how this works!
And finally, we'll shed the light on how decentralised mobility marketplaces will solve the problem of disconnected and inefficient transport in cities. Our investee project <A HREF="https://www.iomob.net/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Iomob</A> is building a platform for transit operators, bus and rail companies, auto manufacturers and others, to address this problem. We'll also learn how Centrality's in-house technologies can support this urban mobility use case.
