Arabs in Blockchain and AlBrza Co-Host Arab Blockchain Week 2021 Virtual Summit to Showcase Arab's Technological Leapfrog

COVID-19 and the pandemic has demonstrated the Arab region’s tech resilience. Since the 2010s, the Gulf has witnessed an upward trend of data outflow and historically high rates of social media and smartphone penetration. Simultaneously, the governments have been directing vast resources toward the digitalization of their infrastructure by creating the needed institutions, amending legislation, partnering with “Big Tech,” and building local human capital. The COVID-19 pandemic has certainly been the biggest test of the Gulf’s digital infrastructure to date, but the region has proved to have formidable digital resilience.

Though blockchain technology is arguably in its nascent stages across most of the Middle East, governments in the region are beginning to leverage the technology to streamline public administration, bolster financial services and optimize business processes.
