WASHINGTON, Oct. 03, 2017 -- The Chamber of Digital Commerce, together with the U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC), are leading the first blockchain certified trade mission to the United Arab Emirates (UAE), on October 1 through October 5, 2017.
The blockchain trade mission will include a delegation of members of Chamber of Digital Commerce with representatives from Bloq, Cisco, CMT Digital, Cognizant, Gem, Hogan Lovells and Netki. A key part of the mission will be focused on increasing US-based companies’ presence in the UAE to help collaborate in implementing the “Dubai Blockchain Strategy,” a vision to make Dubai the first blockchain-powered government in the world by 2020.
“This mission comes at an exciting time," said U.S. Ambassador to the UAE Barbara A. Leaf. "Leading U.S. financial technology providers are here to share the latest in blockchain technology developments with UAE banks, investment firms, and government agencies to ensure the integrity of financial transactions. U.S. financial technology firms are uniquely poised to assist Dubai’s vision of becoming one of the world’s first governments to use this technology.”
“The UAE represents a progressive view in blockchain adoption, and serves as a great example for other governments around the world,” said Perianne Boring, founder and president, Chamber of Digital Commerce. “We look forward to creating new business opportunities and partnerships, thereby advancing global adoption of blockchain technology.”
The blockchain trade mission is a week-long event in the UAE, custom curated by the Chamber of Digital Commerce with support from the DOC and the Embassy of the UAE. The trade mission will include a series of private meetings, briefings and engagements with government officials and UAE-based businesses to promote the growth of US-business and blockchain in the UAE.
