Banking and Financial Services: Putting Government Budgets on Blockchain
In this episode of Digital Transformers, hosts Kevin L. Jackson and Gerard Dache explore the role of blockchain in government operations in this recent Emerging GovTech livestream, produced in partnership with the Government Blockchain Association and the National DigiFoundry. They welcome Amelia Powers Gardner, a pioneer in digital government services, and Paul F. Dowding, a blockchain expert in financial services.
Amelia shares her journey from the private sector to public office, revolutionizing processes like marriage licensing and voting through blockchain. She discusses how blockchain enhances transparency in government budgeting, allowing for better tracking of federal, state, and private funds.
