The Impact of Information Technology on the Development of Corporate Relations: Bringing Decentralized Autonomous Organizations under Russian Jurisdiction

Pavilion F, conference hall F1
Digitalization is already a major driver of social and economic development. Representatives of the legal community, business and state agencies will discuss how business is harnessing digital innovation. Can businesses fully digitize their business processes so that they can resolve corporate issues and challenges and work with government agencies and contractors online? What is required for businesses to evolve into so-called decentralized autonomous organizations? How will the legal status of such businesses change: a new organizational form, a simple partnership or a method of corporate governance? What legal and technological framework should be created to ensure that business can operate smoothly in this new environment?
