OECD Blockchain Policy Forum
ITF's Advisor in Innovation and Technology Katja Schechtner chairs a parallel session on "Blockchain and Beyond: Encoding 21st Century Transport" on Wednesday, 5 September from 11:00 - 12:30 CET. The event will be broadcast live.
Urban mobility today is a siloed world of separate and independently-regulated services. The application of distributed ledger technologies to urban mobility may lead to a future more aligned with “as-a-service” models where actors engage directly with one another based on commonly agreed protocols. ITF will present findings from the report “Blockchain and Beyond: Encoding 21st Century Transport’’. Panellists will discuss how blockchain might better integrate these different factions as well as how public authorities can prepare for a more interconnected urban mobility ecosystem.
Panellists:
- Irfon Watkins, Chief Executive Officer, DOVU
- Philipp Schartau, Director & Advisory, Innovation at EY (Tesseract)
- Tuomas Kaivola, Ministerial Advisor, Ministry of Transport and Communications of Finland
- Guillaume Dechaux, Venture Architect Partner, ConsenSys
