Democracy4All - 10th and 11th of November

D4A2022

Democracy4All will take place the 10th and 11th of November, both in La Llotja de Mar, in Barcelona, and online

The international event Democracy4All (or D4A), which has been held annually since 2019, returns to Barcelona for its fourth edition in a hybrid format, offering both online and on-site experience, after the success of this model on its previous edition. The event is organized by the CBCat (Blockchain Center of Catalonia), which is part of the Barcelona's Chamber of Commerce, with the support of the Catalan Government.

Democracy4All's orientation makes it a unique event in the world, as it focuses on the use of blockchain as an instrument of democratic improvement in terms of social, corporate and individual governance. It offers Catalonia the opportunity to host the most important international conclave for political actors and institutions everywhere, and contributes to speeding up the dialogue between government bodies and new technologies.

Democracy4All brings together talent, experts and policymakers to share and discuss the latest advances in technology and regulation. The backbone of the event relies on the 12 Principles of Good Democratic Governance set by the Council of Europe, which encapsulate fundamental values defining a common vision of democratic governance in Europe (see the 12 principles here).

The list of speakers will be revealed shortly by the organization. The event was attended by top-level personalities from the fields of technology and politics, such as John McAffee, founder of McAffee, John Denton, Secretary General of the ICC, Helen Köpman, acting Head of Unit Digital Innovation and Blockchain at the European Commission, Toomas Hendrik, former president of Estonia or Jordi Puigneró, vice-president of the Catalan Government.
