Call For Papers

Blockchain has been receiving considerable attention in recent years, as new use cases in the public and private sector are identified. Nevertheless, we are still in the early days of Blockchain adoption, compared by some to the introduction of the world wide web itself. Then, as now, few if any could predict the full extent of the disruptive innovations that would emerge fostered by the new technology.

This minitrack welcomes submissions that address Blockchain related issues include, but are not limited to:
	• Blockchain case studies, applications, and implementations
	• Blockchain and privacy, security, and identity
	• Blockchain and digital transformation
	• The social and organizational impact of blockchain
	• Barriers and enablers in blockchain adoption
	• Blockchain and business model innovation
	• Regulatory frameworks for Blockchain
	• Governance and Blockchain
	• Verticals using Blockchain (financial, healthcare, energy, transportation, others)
	• Blockchain in e-government and public administration
	• Blockchain and the Internet-of-Things
	• Blockchain-driven marketplaces
	• Uses of smart contracts
	• Technology and infrastructure issues in Blockchain
