Los Angeles Chapter Meeting – Aerospace & Defense Forum

February 21, 2020 PST

Some of the largest corporations in the world have embraced blockchain technology as a means of improving increased traceability and transparency into their supply chains. From tracking beef, tracing car and aircraft parts to verifying luxury bags and diamonds, blockchain technology is providing companies and consumers unprecedented insight into where goods have come from and every step they took along the supply chain. This carries the further benefit of allowing corporations to identify and root out unethical practices or labor conditions; notably, Coca-Cola conducted a blockchain pilot project with the US State Department aimed at eliminating forced labor in its supply chains.

Please join us in Century City, CA, on Tuesday, February 21, 7:30am–9:00am (breakfast and networking at 7:00am), when Chief Operating Officer of the Global Blockchain Business Council (GBBC) Mercina Tillemann will discuss how blockchain is revolutionizing global supply chains, giving consumers greater insight into what they are buying and helping companies control quality and act more ethically and responsibly.

The meeting is free for members and $40 for non-members ($30 Early Bird until February 13). Guests may attend twice for free.
