CEO SUITE and Digital Bootcamp Asia presents... Let's Talk Bitcoin, a networking and discussion night for Bitcoin enthusiasts (or those who simply want to learn how Bitcoin works!).

Bitcoin and the blockchain technology have been getting a great deal of attention in the financial industry. What is it? It is a digital, decentralized currency that does not require a third party for any two people in the world to conduct business. Transactions are made with no middle men – meaning no banks, no third party. Despite many people believing that Bitcoin is the next generation of monetary systems, serious concerns have come to light around the lack of centralized control or regulation that poses new challenges and possibly big changes.

Our guest speakers, John Patrick Mullin, Senior Research Analyst at Guotai Junan Securities along with Anton Gil, Blockchain Research Analyst and Project Manager at ViewFin will discuss how the technology behind Bitcoin is changing money, business, and the world.

Join us for the opportunity to network with business peers and a free flow wine all night!

Seats are limited to 50 spots, RSVP now to secure your seat!
GUEST SPEAKERS:
1. John Patrick Mullin
  • Senior Research Analyst at Guotai Junan Securities
  • Community Partner Head of Shanghai Cohort at FinTech Connector
  • Topic: Capital Markets FinTech companies have traditionally been underfunded and undervalued by VCs. With the recent cryptocurrency & blockchain craze, new ways of capital raising have emerged that potentially threaten incumbent financial institution business models. Why does this matter? Through innovative capital raising methods using technologies such as blockchain, startups and entrepreneurs can raise vast sums of money without having to deal with VCs and Investment banks. What does this mean for the future of finance and FinTech companies? John will look into potentially game-changing new ways of raising capital and the inherit downsides of speculation in a highly unregulated market.

2. Anton Gil
  • Blockchain Research Analyst at ViewFin
  • Topic: Initial Coin Offering (ICO) and its role in the Blockchain industry. ICO is the most innovative and booming method of crowdfunding with an estimated market of $1 billion backed by surging number of upcoming projects and risk-tolerant investors. While some participants see it as a core driver of the industry, others fear the burst of the bubble will cause ground-shaking damages. How can the ICO process evolve and should it be regulated?
