About Event

Join us September 11 for the much anticipated Season Five Opener of the CT Digital Forum. This year's opening session is free and there will be extended networking. If you've never attended, here's your opportunity to come check it out. RSVP below.

Convergence or Collision Panel Discussion

Four days before the U.S. Senate’s troubled CLARITY Act vote, our panel will debate whether financial players are heading toward an epic cage match or a collaborative, tokenized future—think Jamie Dimon vs. Brian Armstrong.

Beyond the imminent legal issues, we will also discuss how state-issued stable coins, digital banking / brokerage, the regulatory environment and the dawn of autonomous AI are rewriting the rules of global commerce.

Are we facing a Jamie Dimon v. Brian Armstrong cage match or a collaborative, tokenized future?

Topic Tables and Extended Networking

After the panel we'll break up into small table discussion groups covering a range of important issues. This is one of the most popular Forum formats. Topics will include the digital jobs economy, tokenization 2027, The AI cybercrime challenge, Table leaders and topics to be announced soon.

Book Signing

Shh. We hear Hollywood is knocking...

Hold On for Dear Life is Annelise Osborne's debut novel set at the height of the 2017 cryptocurrency bull run. Three MIT graduates build a peer-to-peer trading platform, raise thirty million dollars in a single night, and discover — through a market crash, an exuberant lifestyle, a four-million-dollar secret trade, a kidnapping, a scattering, and a rebuilding — what they were actually building all along. Written by the only executive who has lived both sides of the trade. The answer arrives in a four-minute phone call from Manila.

SEASON FIVE THEME: THE GREAT CONVERGENCE

21st century digital technologies are reshaping our world at a speed that dwarfs all human history. And this season’s theme is built for the moment we're in.

The rapid convergence of Al, blockchain, cyber security, quantum computing and other technologies are challenging organizations and decision-making.

Join our group of executive-level leaders from top institutions, investment firms, and innovative companies as we explore this accelerating digital world and its continuing impacts on the future of money, markets, commerce, society, and culture.
