Joel's talk: Corda is a distributed ledger platform built from the ground up to meet the needs of real world businesses - for confidentiality, for throughput, and for interoperability. This meetup - R3's first on the West Coast - will look at how these needs forced us to to re-evaluate traditional DLT design decisions, and how the resulting platform allows developers to create Corda applications (CorDapps) solving problems that are difficult or impossible to solve with traditional DLT systems.
