Cryptos, blockchain high on agenda for Aug 16 FinTech Canada forum

Big companies such as Google, IBM, MasterCard and Amazon will be represented at FinTech Canada, a conference in Toronto on August 16 with an agenda largely taken up by cryptocurrency and blockchain issues.

The conference will include panel discussions on global impacts of blockchain and cryptocurrencies, and on digital currency exchanges.
