Bridging Financial Ecosystems for Interoperable Networks (SFF 2023)

Synopsis:

Leading financial institutions and infrastructures are actively testing and deploying blockchain-based solutions, and they have achieved meaningful innovations. However, it’s increasingly evident that blockchain networks are not natively interoperable, meaning the digital asset ecosystem will remain fragmented without a universal interoperability protocol to enable value to flow cross-chain. This panel features perspectives from FinTechs and financial institutions who are bridging networks, exchanging value and connecting the dots for the future of finance.
