The State of Everything with Bettina Warburg and Dean Eric Meyer In a discussion led by Bettina Warburg and Dean Eric Meyer, we will offer you a glimpse into the State of Everything, Blockchain Technology, Industry 4.0, and the future Machine State. The shift towards a decentralized economy is in full swing. Blockchain, AI/ML, and IoT are radically changing the way we engage with the economy. Inthis lucid explainer of complex (and confusing) technologies, Bettina Warburg describes the often-overlooked principals of Blockchain Technology, it’s current state, where it’s going, and how it’s paving the way towards something she calls Machine Trust. A new path that will transcend age-old models of commerce, supply chain, finance, and governance to create something far more interesting: a distributed, transparent, and autonomous machine state for the decentralized exchange of value. A technological foundation that will trigger the rise of a new consumer class and alter the relationship between humans and machines well into the future. Speakers Bettina Warburg is Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Animal Ventures, a boutique prototyping firm and venture studio that builds and invests in tech startups, educates executives, and designs new ways for fortune 500 companies to commercialize and leverage emergent technologies. She is one of the first speakers at TED to unpack the topic of blockchain, and her talk, How the Blockchain will radically transform the economy, which now been seen by over 5 million people - making it the most viewed TED talk on the topic of Blockchain to date. Bettina’s collaboration with Wired Magazine to help explain blockchain at 5 levels of difficulty has also been seen by over 2 Million people.

Eric T. Meyer is Dean and the Mary R. Boyvey Chair and Louis T. Yule Regents Professor at the School of Information at the University of Texas at Austin. His research looks at the changing nature of knowledge creation in science, medicine, social science, arts, and humanities as technology is embedded in everyday practices, as described in his 2015 book with co-author Ralph Schroeder “Knowledge Machines: Digital Transformations of the Sciences and Humanities.” His research has included both qualitative and quantitative work with marine biologists, genetics researchers, physicists, digital humanities scholars, social scientists using big data, medical doctors, theatre artists, librarians, and organizations involved in computational approaches to research. Dr. Meyer was previously the Professor of Social Informatics at the University of Oxford and Director of Graduate Studies at the Oxford Internet Institute. Agenda 3:30 Bettina Warburg will give a thought provoking presentation about The State of Everything, Blockchain Technology, Industry 4.0, and the future Machine State. 4:00 Bettina Warburg and Dean Eric Meyer will continue the convesation about The State of Everything. 4:30 Questions and answers; Bettina Warburg and Dean Eric Meyer will spend some time answering additional questions. 5:00pm Reception Location and Contact Information email: [email protected] cell: 508-904-1252 email: 512-897-0352 (on-site - Tom Serres) Address: School of Information, 1616 Guadalupe Street, Austin, Texas.  Room: UTA 1.208 Learn More... Now with over 5 Million views and the #1 Blockchain educational video on TED.com - Bettina Warburg describes how the blockchain will eliminate the need for centralized institutions like banks or governments to facilitate trade, evolving age-old models of commerce and finance into something far more interesting: a distributed, transparent, autonomous system for exchanging value. Blockchain, the key technology behind Bitcoin, is a new network that helps decentralize trade, and allows for more peer-to-peer transactions. WIRED challenged political scientist and blockchain researcher Bettina Warburg to explain blockchain technology to 5 different people; a child, a teen, a college student, a grad student, and an expert.  Blockchain is about to change everything, according to researcher Bettina Warburg. In this talk at IBM, Bettina Warburg describes how blockchain eliminates the need for centralized institutions to facilitate trade, evolving age-old models of commerce and finance into a distributed, transparent, autonomous system for exchanging value. The faster we learn, and the faster we process our lessons into real impact, the more likely we will survive in the future. - Tom Serres and Bettina Warburg, Founders of Animal Ventures
