Disruption in Financial Services, Hong Kong 9th - 10th May 2018
TGV Disruption in Financial Services – Hong Kong, 9th - 10th May
 
True Global Ventures has held 25 highly praised Disruption in Financial Services events in New York, San Francisco, Singapore, Beijing, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Mumbai, Tokyo, Stockholm, London, Paris and Berlin. We are stringing together FinTech trends and what Financial Institutions in the future might look like. We showcase growth stage FinTech startups, identify future Blockchain and trends and help bring the industry together.
 
We do not allow this to become a PR & Marketing event, media and journalists are not allowed and Chatham rules apply. We are aggressively challenging the ongoing hype around blockchain. We dig into real user cases of Blockchain applications to solve real problems and define what should go into production or blockchain technology.
 
Look forward to an engaging discussion with top industry leaders (corporates, investors, entrepreneurs) in FinTech!

To ensure developers get the highest throughout in performance, reliability and scalability, Bluzelle implements swarming technologies. A swarm is a large group of nodes (computers) that work together to store and manage data. Nodes in these swarms can go down and new nodes can come up with minimal impact on the network. Overall Bluzelle is a meta-swarm comprised of multiple swarms. Bluzelle has worked with AIA, Maybank, Temenos, BT, KPMG and more.
 
Bluzelle’s founders (Pavel Bains and Neeraj Murarka) are of Indian origin who’s parents immigrated to Canada. Bluzelle now has offices in Singapore and Vancouver and successfully completed a $19.5M ICO in January.
