Founded in 2015 the Ministry is the governmental agency, whose mission is to create the digital impulse for Poland’s development. Bitcoin and blockchain, along with the Internet of Things, have been assigned to the accelerating and revolutionary technologies to promote the development and progress and might cause the previously unknown risks. The seminar was to become the platform to exchange the expertise within this area in different countries, promote the new national and international technology initiatives, as well as support the influential dialogue with European commission and the government of Poland.
Among the invitees to discuss the Distributed Ledger Technology were experts from IBM, the UK, the Netherlands and other European countries. One of the invited experts was Mrs. Jana Krimpe, a CEO of Azerbaijani company «B.EST Solutions», which is an “Asan-Imza” e-signature operator. “Asan-Imza” Mobile-ID and e-signature service provides extensive and safe access to the Public and private electronic services and is equated with a nationwide identity on the legislative level.
