This year the Emerging Issues Forum is moving beyond its focus on Accounting IS Big Data to bring together industry leaders, accounting professionals, and academics to study Blockchain Technology and its urgent issues. Speakers who are confronted daily by the challenges of implementing this game-changing technology will discuss not only the basics of blockchain technology but also discuss the crucial issues surrounding its implementation.

The two day conference will feature TED-like talks and 100 minute workshops to go broad and deep about HOW and WHY blockchain is transforming business. The conference will highlight several use cases and the companies that are leading the blockchain transformation to demonstrate how organizations are radically changing their business models, processes, products, services, and uses of data. Participants can earn up to 19 hours of CPE.
