The Bloconomic Summit 2018 by the Malaysia Blockchain Association kicked off with an opening ceremony by the President of the association, Dato Rayson Wong, followed by a speech from the Vice President of Malaysian Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC), Mr. Norhizam Kadir. They launched Trivechain Blockchain Hub, a centre of excellence for blockchain applications which is a collaboration between Malaysian Blockchain Association, Setia Haruman Sdn. Bhd. and the Trivechain Foundation. The launch was followed by a series of MoU signings between the Malaysia Blockchain Association and several parties. The MoU represented an agreement to build the blockchain ecosystem together both in Malaysia at domestic level and globally.
Though it was Malaysia Blockchain Association’s first time organizing such summit, it did not fail to attract a wide variety of international big names in the blockchain industry to set up booths to showcase their projects. The many exhibitors were blockchain start-ups and established companies from countries such as Australia, China, Hong Kong, Italy, Japan, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Singapore, South America, South Korea, Taiwan and United States.
