In the fast-growing blockchain technology, the application execution is especially important. During the two-day summit, dozens of in-depth keynote speeches and panel discussion will explore the development trend and application prospects of blockchain technology, providing enterprises, industries, and governments with cutting-edge thinking and innovative solutions for economic transformation.

Aspect 1: Digital economy to promote Indonesia's economic development

Earlier, UN Assistant Secretary-General Xu Haoliang said: "We believe that blockchain is a technology that can have a huge impact on developing countries in many ways." The United Nations Development Programme has also used blockchain technology to help improve the lives of people in developing countries all over the world, blockchain has a great potential for achieving sustainable development goals in terms of aid, immigration, cross-border payments, and energy efficiency.

In the past two years, there is a continuous growth of digital innovation as well as the competition of local companies in the field of digital transformation where several initiatives are launched. Innovation accelerators such as cloud, data, artificial intelligence, blockchain, and IoT are becoming the key drivers of diversified innovation for Indonesian companies. Among them, blockchain technology has contributed greatly to Indonesia's economic growth in finance, entertainment, agriculture, tourism, transportation, and governing management.

Aspect 2: Distributed Business Leads the Digital Economy Era

The new revolution of business model is closely related to the development of distributed technology. The goal is to enable suppliers and intermediate platform providers in commercial activities to fully decentralize their production, management, operation, and service. Distributed business, a protocol based on the underlying technology of the blockchain and the concept of the tokenomy are leading the rapid development of the digital economy.

Distributed business as a new business model, their biggest difference from the franchise business model and sharing business model is that distributed business can achieve more thorough full decentralization and monopoly. For Indonesia, their 100,000 small and medium-sized enterprises can truly become the main lead of the business value chain through a distributed business model, thereby stimulating economic growth, broadening employment, encouraging entrepreneurship and innovation.

Aspect 3: Blockchain empowers traditional businesses

Current Indonesia, whether it is a private sector or government body, has been actively exploring blockchain technology and attempt on implementing blockchain technology into agriculture, transportation, finance, tourism, and government management.

In the financial sector, the Bank of Indonesia (BI) has announced their plans on launching its digital currency. Several banks led by Mandiri Bank, are also exploring the use of blockchain technology for financial trading. Apart from that, the use of blockchain technology has enabled efficient and free funds transferring, and the inward remittance in Indonesia has also increased significantly.

In terms of the hospitality industry, blockchain technology could have a major role in the area of transforming the vacant property management right. This is to provide a reliable, transparent and measurable collaborative scheme,  as well as efficiently use of the vacant property management right to achieve high income, high-efficiency, and mutually profitable collaboration.

With over 17,000 islands, Indonesia is one of the largest island nations in the world follows by a clustered population. Looking into this, the efficiency of managing traffic data information through traditional method is unable to meet the requirements of its government. On the other hand, the use of blockchain will effectively reduce the cost of data loss incidents and data corruption, enhances the link between parties involved in traffic management, which help to increase its efficiency and credibility, making it possible for pre-control. On the other hand, blockchain technology is also used in the field of logistics and shipping, providing an effective logistics management in terms of time and cost-effectiveness by instantly updating the exact location of the goods in transit.

The world is speeding up following the blockchain era. The blockchain technology innovation and commercial application are driving the industry to change, and it also profoundly affects the upgrading and value innovation of all walks of life.
