// SPEAKERS //

- AXEL BEELEN (https://www.linkedin.com/in/axelbeelen/)
<< Business and legal makers are stuck in front of two dilemmas when they mix Blockchain and privacy. The first one is related to the question 'can we demand more GDPR transparency on blockchains in the fear that we will block innovations?' Second is related to the time it will take to modify the made-for-centralized-applications- GDPR, time which is always too long for entrepreneurs. How to solve these equations? Is it really the end of the road for European blockchain solutions? Or can we find trade-offs in order to not only be clients of the future Chinese or American innovations? Let’s try to solve together the puzzle. >>

- TIM JANSSEN (https://www.linkedin.com/in/timjanssen89/)
<< With a background in physics through his research at CERN, he dived deeply into cryptography.  With this, he manifested it into a passion for blockchain to understand the fundamental underpinnings.   He leverages this by developing blockchain use cases ranging from the energy sector to the financial sector.  Additionally, he follows and supports these use cases through it’s realization, whether it be go live, pilot, proof of concept or hackathon.  Through this experience, he’s often seen as a domain expert participating actively in the blockchain community by speaking at Universities, CGI, Meetups, CANON, etc. During this hyperledger meetup Tim will lead a panel discussion with other domain experts on the topic of governance and privacy. >>
