TECH Talk on applying Blockchain in real business scenarios On 20 Nov, 5 Fung Scholars attended the TECH talk hosted by Li & Fung’s Digital Learning team in Hong Kong. Fung Scholars got to hear from Blockchain expert Dr. Paul Sin about the blockchain solutions that work best in a B2B ecosystem. Dr. Sin has over 20 years of IT management and consulting experience in the financial services sector and is currently leading the FinTech practice and Asia Pacific Blockchain Lab at Deloitte. Dr. Sin gave his insight on the developments of blockchain technology, outlined the trends and shared his vision on how they will shape our future in different lines of business. He also shared real business cases on how blockchain can be applied to create value with reference to the banking, insurance and supply chain industries. The overall feedback on this session was very positive and participants felt that it was highly relevant to their current work. One of our own, Fung Scholar Aaron Leung (FS13/14, The Chinese University of Hong Kong) even had the opportunity to ask Dr. Sin a question directly.
