In this session we expect to discuss:

Web3, The Metaverse and the Bight Distributed Future. Why It Really Is Something to Consider Today, or Maybe Not?
Thursday 8th December 2022 17:00 CET
Will going to work as an avatar be any different from a video meeting today. I cannot imagine going back to purely voice calls for my meetings with clients – will we feel the same in a few years about being present in the Metaverse?
From a business perspective how could a distributed economy where commerce has moved into the virtual world change your organisation? Is there going to be an advantage to being a first mover in your industry? How do you explain the importance, or lack of importance, of this area to you less digital knowledgeable collegues?
In this session we will discuss the how we should approach this topic:
- Developing a presence in the Metaverse – is it a priority?
- Are Web3 wallets and apps going to survive hype, regulation and cyber-crime,
- Managing the complexity increased distributed data,
- The security, sovereignty issues around the use of these technologies?
