BLOCKCHAIN – CRYPTOCURRENCIES SEMINAR

On Wednesday, April 14th, 2021, the Executive MBA organized yet another specialized and highly valuable seminar for its students and alumni. More than 200 participants supported this new initiative of the Executive MBA – Executive Leadership Seminars!

The blockchain market, mainly through Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, is becoming an increasingly important pillar of the financial sector. To fully recognize the value of blockchain technology and its potential impact, it is essential to understand a series of key topics, such as the concept of decentralization, consensus mechanisms, incentives, the notion of cryptography, and peer-to-peer systems.

We would like to warmly thank the seminar speakers, Professor Konstantinos Drakos, Professor of Finance and Vice Rector of AUEB, as well as Dr. Antonis Ballis, PhD in Finance at AUEB, for their highly engaging and insightful presentation.
