"Global challenges, blockchain enabled solutions, meet the Dutch changemakers!"

Hosted by Special Envoy for the Netherlands, HRH Prince Constantijn van Oranje

Blockchain technology is poised to change the world of business, disrupting an array of industries including finance, healthcare, government, music, film, and more.

The Netherlands is rapidly becoming a blockchain nation. Home to the world's largest blockchain hackathon - attracting geeks, entrepreneurs, hot new startups city officials and large corporates. The Dutch government has launched more than 25 blockchain trials and Dutch banks, energy companies, pension funds and the Port of Rotterdam are all testing the digital ledger technology.

Blockchain activity and the use of blockchain as a force for good, is just one aspect of the world-class technology hub. We are excited to present a line up of inspiring speakers and our Dutch Startup Showcase at the New Dutch Wave House at SXSW. Here's what you can expect!

Storro.com - blockchain technology empowering decentralized secure storage and collaboration
We are on a mission to create a more secure digital society. By using blockchain and peer-to-peer technology, we have developed the most secure way to share and store data. Our first product based on this technology (Storro) lets you collaborate directly with each other, without the need to trust third parties. Because the information and its keys are stored decentralized, on locations you trust, with an audit trail that is distributed and transparent, you can rest assured that your information is always secure and private. Let Arthur Melissen, CTO of Storro, show you how the latest information technologies can be used to increase trust and freedom in our digital world.
