University of Tsukuba, Head of the Digital Nature Development Research Center, Yoichi Ochiai
The existing way of industry operations, such as taxes and currencies, is hiding the potential efficiency of technology. I feel blockchains has huge potential, especially in expectations of what they all can do. I’m excited to talk about this.

With regards to how much trading can be evolved using blockchain technology, we always received discussion in the academic area from our company advisor, Professor Fuhito Kojima (University of Tokyo), but this time, I’m appreciative to have the opportunity to also hear from Professor Ochiai. I will borrow intellect of one of Japan’s finest and use this time to think about a new method of trading.
