The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) announces that the event will be held in Paris from 4 to 5 September and will be the first international event of its kind, dedicated to blockchain technology.

The Blockchain Policy Forum also plans to discuss potential global economic impacts on technology, privacy and cybersecurity, inclusiveness, promoting green growth and sustainability, and governance and enforcement practices.
More than 400 “senior decision makers” visit the forum, OECD reports. According to the event schedule, senior officials from Slovenia, Israel, Russia, Finland, Italy, Serbia and other countries are taking part in the discussions.
Hyperledger, Ripple, IOTA and other blockchain executives will talk about blockchain implementation in different regions, according to the OECD publication schedule.
In preparation for the event, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Competition Department launched a bulletin entitled “Blockchain Technology and Competition Policy”, which briefly explains technology and its use to governments and public needs. Taxes and regulations worldwide are also mentioned in the document.
