ODEM’s own Dr. Michael Zargham will be speaking at the WCEF’s event in San Francisco

Dr. Zargham will be speaking on Coordination Markets and Crypto-Economics for the Application Layer

Dr. Zargham’s talk will focus on unique aspects of the application layer in blockchain-based platforms. Specifically, he will elaborate on application layers in platforms that act as coordination markets in which a group of service providers and consumers interact to provide a service or event. Dr. Zargham will use ODEM.IO (On-Demand Education Marketplace), a new blockchain-enabled platform being developed to coordinate in-person education events, as a case study.
