Ireland, Jun 14, 2021 - (ACN Newswire) - GBA Ireland, led by Jillian Godsil and Lisa Gibbons, is to host its first event in Ireland on the topic of Blockchain and Identity.

The topic of Identity will be explored by three guest experts in this field and hosted by international blockchain expert, journalist and senior editor at ITN, Simon Cocking.
"Blockchain technology can help to protect sensitive information. With the power of blockchain based identity we can transform how our data is used across many industries: finance, banking, travel and healthcare are just a few industries that can use this break-through technology," says Simon.
"It can help to map your physical identity to your digital footprint, allowing for reduced checks for proof of identification and enabling easier management of records and certificates.
"Think about your online banking, when you want to upgrade your insurance, filing your taxes, booking flights, scheduling medical appointments: these processes become seamless with the use of blockchain technology," he added.
The guest speakers are: Rob Leslie - CEO and Founder of Sedicii, Shiv Aggarwal - CEO and Founder of EarthId, Adam Bouktila - Founder and CEO of DMerch.io and Paula Mare Kilgarriff - Global Retail Innovation and Emerging Technologies Lecturer.
"Digital Identity has the power to fundamentally change people's lives for the better but it is not without risks. What is at stake is your privacy, your financial security and ultimately who you are as person. Are we ready for it?," says Rob.
