November was a busy conference month that started for me in Brussels with Kanatara's European-based liaison partner EEMA with the its annual ISSE conference. Our next gig is the pre-conference workshop to curtain-raise Kuppinger Cole's Consumer Identity World Tour 2017 is in Paris, 27th November. This promises to be a great event, with both speakers and registrations bulging. We have such great teamwork amongst our European members and they certainly have not let us down in this instance.

I’m going to pass it around to try to counter all the crazy Smart Contracts will solve all our problems talk going around the [entity redacted ] right now".
