Blockchain is the most promising technological advancement since the dawn of the internet. The impact it will have on businesses and especially the financial sector is yet to be fully measured. This paper explores the blockchain technology, within the scope of the banking industry and its potential for disruption. It highlights the technology’s characteristics and its value proposition for the banking industry. It will also give the reader a complete overview of the multiple use-cases by which blockchain will impact the banking sector in every area, ranging from data security to trade finance, as well as new products such as smart contracts. The paper also describes the many hurdles blockchain technology and financial players must overcome before its potential can be fully realized. It insists on the fact this technology will only achieve a widespread use if every actor work together. A single player will not be able to get a competitive advantage on its own. The only way will be to create common standard and networks, by working with the competition as well as the regulators.

Crafting Expertise, Authority and Trust with Entity-Based Content Strategy - ...Jamie Indigo
At SMXL, I presented a talk about crafting effective, authoritative content by understanding entities. People, places, objects, and ideas have facets. Human users have unique perspectives and their language changes as their relationship to an entity changes. It's time we stop chasing keywords-- a byproduct of search intent-- in favor of strategic entity-based strategy.
This deck includes insights into how to access the data behind Google's knowledge graph, use external links to boost the search engine's understanding, and ways to become an authoritative and trusted source.
BrightonSEO - Master Crawl Budget Optimization for Enterprise WebsitesManick Bhan
For every website on the internet, Google has a fixed budget for how many pages their bots can and are willing to crawl. The internet is a big place, so Googlebot can only spend so much time crawling and indexing our websites. Crawl budget optimization is the process of ensuring that the right pages of our websites end up in Google’s index and are ultimately shown to searchers.
Google’s recommendations for optimizing crawl budget are rather limited, because Googlebot crawls through most websites without reaching its limit. But enterprise-level and ecommerce sites with thousands of landing pages are at risk of maxing out their budget. A 2018 study even found that Google’s crawlers failed to crawl over half of the webpages of larger sites in the experiment.
Influencing how crawl budget is spent can be a more difficult technical optimization for strategists to implement. But for enterprise-level and ecommerce sites, it’s worth the effort to maximize crawl budget where you can. With a few tweaks, site owners and SEO strategists can guide Googlebot to regularly crawl and index their best-performing pages.

Are you consistently creating content that performs well on Google?
Do you want to know if you stand a chance to rank?
Watch this sponsored Search Engine Journal webinar and discover how to create better-ranking content based on a reliable approach.
In this presentation, you’ll learn:
• The best way to find opportunities within the topic of your choice so that you can rank.
• How to research, plan, and structure your content.
• How to monitor performance and regularly refresh content to maintain rank.
Often, businesses approach content optimized for SEO as an afterthought rather than an intentional strategy.
Apoorv Gadwal, Director of Product Management at ALPS, and Ajay Rama, SVP Products of iQuanti, will discuss how easy it is for anyone to create content that performs well on Google with a proven plan.
We must have equality by now? Why unconscious bias in the agency world is holding you back.
We still live in a world where your boss is more likely to be called Steve, than to be a woman. In the US, 48% of African American women report being mistaken for administrative or custodial staff, whilst in meetings women are interrupted 33 percent more often than men.
Have you ever felt that your opinions and expertise are valued less that your colleagues, that you’re being talked over in meetings, or not invited to give your opinion? Sexism and discrimination has changed from being something blatant and obvious, to more of an undertone of challenge that makes life that little bit harder for certain sectors of the population. Men get more airtime in the boardroom, and women are more likely to get interrupted. It’s not always the unpleasant chauvinist who is being sexist, it can come from other women, or the man that you actually like and respect.
This sort of unconscious bias leaves us experiencing self-doubt which negatively affects our performance, our confidence and chances of promotion. Yet often we can’t put our fingers on why we feel this way, because of its very nature being more discreet.
Cheryl Luzet became fascinated about unconscious bias having experienced it herself running a marketing agency. From people assuming that her male staff member must be the boss, to having her opinions questioned and challenged by male clients – challenges that mysteriously disappear when a man backs them up.
With real examples from agency life, Cheryl highlights the challenges that exist for anyone working in an agency, who doesn’t fit the white, male mould.
This talk isn’t just for women, if you’re a man you absolutely need to attend to find out how unconscious bias has perpetuated society that we assume is now ‘equal’. Find out how you can help to support your female colleagues get an equal opportunity.

Given the complexity of creating RFPs, organisations are not
always fully equipped to ask the correct questions, and might even
lack the required technical knowledge. This talk will demonstrate

As sourcing is a highly specialized and complex process, many IT and business executives consider hiring a specialized sourcing advisory to support the development of a sourcing strategy, the execution of an insourcing initiative, or the management of an outsourcing transaction.

Conducting a thorough analysis of sourcing advisory firms is key to finding the best fit firm for your project. This strategy brief discusses how to find the best sourcing advisor that fits your needs.

Need help write at jainkajal0712@gmail.com / thekajaljain@gmail.com
How to Gather Vision and Scope Requirements for Software SolutionsKadir Çamoğlu
The right questions to the right person, in the right place, at the right time…
One of the most important prerequisites for a successful IT software project and the right software solution is to conduct an effective business analysis.
Good business analysis is only possible with the right questions. I wrote the Business Analysis Questions for Software Solutions as a supportive reference for conducting successful business analysis studies.
It is not only for the analysts at the beginning of their careers but also for the experienced ones.
Let’s face it: Recruiting is hard. It’s nearly impossible without recruiting software or an applicant tracking system to help you automate the massive amount of daily tasks involved in hiring. With so many things to keep track of, recruiting without the help of an ATS can sometimes feel like herding cats.
Applicant tracking systems are command-central for all recruiting activities from posting jobs, to scheduling interviews, to collecting feedback, to moving candidates through the funnel and even onboarding new hires. But buying an ATS can be as overwhelming as recruiting itself.
You’ll learn:
-How to evaluate whether or not you need an ATS
-What an applicant tracking system is
-What the vendor landscape looks like
-What to look for in an ATS
-How to make the case for recruiting software

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
