 We're here in Malta to participate in the financial cryptography conference in 2017. This is the most prestigious conference and the one that emphasizes a lot blockchain and Bitcoin technologies. So the purpose of financial cryptography is to kind of ask what cryptographic algorithms are necessary to quantify trust on the internet. Why our company comes here is that we really want to get a sense of what are the tools that will be available to us when we build currencies for clients. So what can we do in terms of privacy? What are the most efficient algorithms? What are the most usable algorithms and so forth? And where's the horizon? Furthermore, it's good to see what questions are being asked by the younger researchers so we can kind of get a notion of the overall direction of the field. The papers selected cover all different facets of the cryptography and security starting from basic cryptographic primitives that are useful for business applications, going to identity management, previously preserving processing of data. So these are like, if you want like positive results, how we can create new systems, how we can design better systems securely that can process let's say sensitive data. But there's also attacks against the systems that have been proposed before. As expected, if you want, a very important theme of financial cryptography is blockchain technology. IOHK is a research company at its core and we really do enjoy traveling to conferences that aggregates some of the best cryptographers, information security experts. So there are things that are directly applicable to our field and then there are other things which are more foundational and fundamental. So there are like tools. As a cryptocurrency engineering company, the other half of IOHK, we need to be a good accumulator of tools and algorithms. We need to discover them over time or implement them over time and we put them up on the shelf and we say, okay, that's there and when somebody wants us to build something, we can then pull it off the shelf and use it. We're here because IOHK is sponsoring this conference, but also because our researchers are presenting this conference and our researchers get to interact of course with other researchers in the field but they also get to interact face to face with the developers in our company. As a distributor company, we really treasure this opportunity to get together and get to know each other a little better and Malta is a wonderful place to do that and we try to do that more than once a year. We're actually planning our next get together already. It's amazing to be here in Malta. It has a tremendous history. It's really a cultural melting pot of the Mediterranean. Usually countries that have been conquered many times, they tend to have a lot of the left behind cultures. So there's many, many different languages spoken here. The architecture is phenomenal and Malta is also a tremendously innovative country. Despite its very small size, they're very proactive in trying to kind of be like the Dubai of the Mediterranean and they really want to have a strong financial industry. They already have a very strong eye gaming industry and they're looking into how they can build themselves up. So it's a fertile environment with lots of innovation, very good government, very stable member of the EU with a long and rich history of being a hub for trading.
