Logistics firm Tristar has been a regional pioneer for its use of blockchain technology, and group head of IT Adam Lalani will share his story of success on the blockchain panel discussion.

He will be joined by Meraas Holding’s senior director of IT Ajay Rathi, a mainstay of Middle East technology who has proven himself to be one of the region’s outstanding digital leaders over the last few years.
