Yoshinobu Shijo
I am a Ph.D student of the Advanced network architecture laboratory of
the Graduate School on Information Science, Osaka University, Japan.
Currently I am studying about integrations of blockchain and IoT.
For my work experience, I was ex-CTO of Japanese startup, LastRoots,
where I developed bitcoin-based cryptocurrency "c0ban" and raised 6.3M
USD on ICO in Japan. In addition, I managed engineer team which
consists of 30+ people. I also deliver consulting services for lots of
companies that try to utilize blockchain technologies into their
businesses. I believe the potential of blockchain, on the other hand,
I think blockchain is not well utilized because of lack of fundamental
knowledge about it. So I want to give a lot of useful practical
information based on my working experience in blockchain company and
current research results in Ph.D course.
