RE: Blockchain in the healthcare industry

in #technology • 8 years ago (edited)

Nice one @jacor. I spent some time at the Gartner symposium earlier this week (no longer have the stamina for 3 full days of mind numbing speakers). They do see Blockchain Technology as one of the Top 10 strategic technology trends for 2017 (Blockchain and Distributed Ledger), but my impression is they consider it as immature and not yet really relevant... just my take at the time.
Edit: Sorry forgot to mention.... while networking I mentioned Steemit and Steem to quite a few individuals... to blank stares. Without exception none of them had heard of Steemit.

    Thanks for the comment @themagus . Will download their reports in a bit to see what they are up to with their predictions. I am speaking to more and more of my larger customers, and the finance and telecommunications industry customers are all now looking into the tech. Apologies man, I wasn't on the platform due to workload. I just saw you post for the meetup in Cape Town. Keep me up to speed with how you are progressing. Are you guys joining the more formal Steem Saturday event on the 29th of October ? It will be the first one in the world. So I think it is worth travelling for making history :)

    I will keep you in the loop as regards the local gathering. I doubt that I will be making the October event.... but to be honest have not given it much thought. Perhaps I should arrange a business trip to tie in with that period !!

    Now you are talking. Bear in mind Ned Scott will be here for the keynote and answering of questions. I booked the venue and paid the deposits yesterday. @gavvet will do a post either later today or tomorrow announcing the venue and we will have amazing speakers. I bet you it will be better than listening to the Gartner symposium dudes :)

    Alright, I will give it serious consideration. Once I know which area I will arrange around that. I need to get that @gavvet chap to start giving me a vote or three ...
