ICO is a hotly debated issue associated with blockchain. Will cryptocurrency crowdsales keep their popularity in 2018 and if yes, which strategies for raising funds will be the most effective?

And Mr. Smith will express his point of view on investing in startups in the future.

The global aspect of cryptocurrencies and blockchain is a topic to be covered by the participants as well.

Both experts have extensive experience in banking and finance, and have been involved in the topic of blockchain and cryptocurrency for the past few years.
