    About this audiobook

    Blockchain is transforming business. What's your strategy? Forward-thinking organizations such as the Australian Stock Exchange, Equinor, the City of Austin, and dozens of others are exploring how blockchain can transform the way they create and seek value. Whether to streamline multi-party processes, create and trade new assets, or leverage artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things, blockchain enables entirely new business opportunities.



    This is just the start. As blockchain is more widely adopted, it has the potential to radically reinvent the way companies and societies operate, as radical a paradigm shift as happened with the launch of the internet.



    The Real Business of Blockchain is one of the first books on this transformative technology written for business leaders. Authors David Furlonger and Christophe Uzureau—both of Gartner, the world-renowned research and advisory company—will help you: assess how blockchain will impact your business by cutting through the hype and finding the real story; explore the value proposition that blockchain technologies offer; make smart near- and mid-term investments in your blockchain strategy; and position you and your organization in a new competitive landscape in the future.

      This book is an excellent introduction to what blockchain is. I find a first few chapters to be extremely informative especially in the way the authors describe and define for listeners the notions of blockchain vis-à-vis technologies and how applied blockchain can be. Other chapters are a little bit hard to understand because they might sound a little bit more professional in the sense one has to be in some specific fields to understand the references but all in all it is a really good book.
