“The very positive response we’ve received in recent years has motivated us to organise another Autumn School this year. All events will be free of charge and take place online. We regard blockchain as an important and forward-looking innovation, and want to give everyone the chance to learn about it in a professionally sound manner,” said the initiator, Head of the BCCM and Professor of Computer Science and Distributed Information Systems at Mittweida University of Applied Sciences, Professor Dr Andreas Ittner.
Over 25 renowned partners, such as Siemens, SAP, IBM, EnBW, PWC, Deloitte, Mastercard, CGI, Volksbank Mittweida, as well as many research institutions such as the Fraunhofer FIT, the Frankfurt School, the University of Leipzig and HTW Dresden, will be presenting their latest applications and key areas of research.
With over 45 events, the Autumn School focuses on training and further education in the field of blockchain. On the one hand, the lectures and practical sessions provide foundational knowledge. On the other hand, there is a wide range of sector-specific presentations on the topics of ‘Energy’ (on 11 September), ‘Logistics’ (on 12 September) and ‘Decentralised Finance’ (on 13 September).
Thursday (14 September) is dedicated entirely to science and research. In the Scientific Track, selected researchers will have the opportunity to present their approaches and findings for discussion and compete for the Best Paper Award.
In addition, BAS2023 offers an exciting supporting programme featuring a virtual panel discussion (14 September), three digital blockchain meet-ups (11 and 12 September) and a themed session (13 September). The focus here is on topics such as artificial intelligence and blockchain, blockchain adoption in Germany, and the current implementation of blockchain technology. The week is rounded off by the Demonstrator Day organised by the Mittweida Blockchain Showcase Region (in cooperation with the town of Mittweida). On the one hand, this offers the opportunity to discuss and further develop exciting blockchain project ideas. On the other hand, you can look forward to engaging project presentations on innovative blockchain applications from various sectors.
