Blockchain in culture. A new way of regulating the exchange of cultural goods and services?

Spanish

March 21 OF 2018 from 07:30 PM to 09:00 PM

The ESADE Alumni Cultural and Creative Industries Club, the ESADE Alumni e-Business and ICT Club and the ESADE Alumni Law Club are all delighted to invite you to their forthcoming talk, “Blockchain in culture.  A new way of regulating the exchange of cultural goods and services?”

Blockchain is an up-and-coming trend that promises to revolutionise the economy and the business models of every industry. Applications related to intellectual property and rights management are already emerging in the sphere of culture. How can the culture industry benefit from the decentralised economy? Are new business models on the horizon? Who will be in control – the industry or the artist?

During this session, we will learn about Blockchain basics from Montserrat Guardia, Digital Challenge - Emerging Technologies Director at Banc Sabadell; we will discover a new way of managing musical rights from Eric Jordi Cubells, Business & Legal Affairs at Unison; and we will hear about a decentralised platform for managing artists’ intellectual property from David Proto, art director and co-ordinator of the Creativechain.org project.
