TEAMZ Blockchain Summit Postponed Due to Coronavirus
TEAMZ Blockchain Summit It is the largest blockchain conference in Japan. The 2020 event was supposed to take place on April 22.
But the organizing team announced that the event TEAMZ 2020 has been postponed for September 28 and Tokyo Blockchain Week was also postponed. The latter will take place from September 27 to October 3, according to the announcement. Organizers postponed the event due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The team said sadly in a statement:
However, TEAMZ thanked all parties who worked hard to organize the event, from sponsors to speakers, media partners, teams and the support of our attendees. We all put in long hours to make sure everything went well. ”
Coronavirus again
TEAMZ Blockchain Summit was to celebrate its fifth anniversary on April 22. But the Coronavirus impacted this event like many other events in the tech world, and the summit may take place in September. The new Coronavirus or COVID-19 disease caused the cancellation or postponement of many major tech conferences like MWC, F8, Google I / O, and the list grows every day.
Furthermore, most of the major tech companies along with blockchain and cryptocurrency startups decided to change work policies and encourage employees to work from home. The new decisions and measures have caused many major problems for companies around the world, and there does not appear to be a short-term solution to the current pandemic. Anyway, at this moment, holding any conference with many attendees like TEAMZ (with more than 3,000 attendees) does not seem to be smart.
The biggest blockchain event in Japan
TEAMZ Blockchain Summit is the largest blockchain-based conference in Japan that is part of Tokyo Blockchain Week. Attendees will have the opportunity to network, connect, find investors, and also showcase products, services, and any other achievements to the world.
Some speakers and special guests from the largest companies in the tech world attend the TEAMZ conference. For example, notable executives from Oracle Corporation, Microsoft Japan, IBM Japan, Fujitsu Japan and Line Corporation have had panel discussions at the event. Some of the confirmed speakers for this year's conference are from companies like Rakuten, CoinField, Lisk, Ripple, Hitachi and Bitcoin.com.
